After 11 days with WP7, I'm not overwhelmed or sold entirely, but I'm also somewhat impressed because of its speed and ease of use - the UI is an extension of one of my favorite UI's in the last few years - Zune HD basically.

But that's me.
I'm excited about the possibilities of WP-Zune tie in. I also like their interface and implementation of 'things should just work' and 'prioritizing the common and popular functions'; like what Apple and Google has done before them;

But I despise Ballmer... and (my perceived) lack of differentiation; unimaginative; repackaging of WP7. It somehow feels like a copy of iOS v1 (no copy paste, 'multitasking',etc) to a borg-like army (many brands, 1 'design').

I hope they change my mind in their future versions.
I play xbox games.
