Here it is, direct from a trusted source close to the situation — a Zune 1 running firmware 2.1, which will bring all the Zune 2 software goodies and UI tweaks with it when those bad boys are announced on Wednesday. That’s right, we also have confirmation that Microsoft will be making the Zune 2 announcement on Wednesday, which should give the Zune tattoo guy plenty of time to get some new ink before the holidays.

Update: We’re now being told that while Microsoft will announce and discuss the Zune 1 firmware update on Wednesday, it won’t be available until sometime later — presumably when the Zune 2s hit the market.
