At the moment, it's hampered a bit by non-existence.

Once it comes out (expected in February), it will be hampered by being a 
2.5 gig player (4 gig minus 1.5 gig for the pre-installed Linux and 
application software) that costs more than an 8 gig iPod Nano (which is 
8 gig for the user, not 8 gig to be shared by the user and the system 
software), weighs more than the iPod nano (60g vs 40g), and takes up 65% 
more space than the Nano.

It's going to make Zune sales look like iPod sales.
