Well, most of us had known about this already, but NVIDIA have just decided to make the news official. It has been confirmed that the upcoming Zune HD will be powered by the NVIDIA Tegra Processor.

It was only after news broke about the Zune HD being available for pre-order, that NVIDIA decided to get all official it seems. Over on their website, they proudly state that their Tegra Chip will be providing the ‘Multimedia Muscle’ for Microsoft’s next generation media player.
