Anyone think the new Zune store displays are misleading? (in regards to size)

Rather than show the real size of the product, the displays just use the faceplates (which are about 2cm or so thin).

I'll admit, when I first saw them I was like, "Wow, they made these suckers thin!" only to realize it as just the faceplate on display.

Is it just me?

I guess in hindsight the pictures surrounding the display show the thickness, but the zunes themselves almost seem to be there to show a physical example.

Target used to have the actual Zune30 on their displays. My guess is that either the Zune80 is still too new for them to have gotten enough in stock with which to make displays for each store, or they don't want to shell out the $$$ for proper displays this round.

I'm not talking about the picture, i'm talking about the physical display unit (or what seems to be one) that you can touch sitting on the ledge.
