-No headphone jack - included adapter is a big bulky joke
-Weather app only works with major cities so it's not accurate for my town
-Youtube links in Opera don't open in Youtube app, try to open in Windows Media Player and fail.
-Pocketable, but still too bulky in my opinion
-Every time you forget to close out of Youtube app it will stop you from being able to start another multimedia app.
-Screen not as responsive to taps as it should be

I've had it for less than 24 hours and so far I'm not thrilled by it.

Windows Mobile:

-Just about everything sucks (except the fact that it's so customizable)
-After 6+ versions of this OS they can't even make a decent battery life indicator
the dpad gets better once you realize you have to hit outside the circle (it took me a bit to realize that too... go further away from the center than your first instinct)...

there is a regedit to turn up the screen sensitivity - search the diamond forums... there is still a problem near the edges of the screen with sensitivity - you have to press pretty hard right up against the edge but meh it's not that bad... might get better as the plastic gets more flexible (I believe it is caused by the black border creating a small gap between the outer plastic of the screen and the touch sensitive part?)

haven't had the problem with the youtube app - hard reset?

cities can be added to the weather app...

not sure why you would use opera to browse youtube when you have an app to browse it for you?

the screen is a little small though, but the rest of the problems you listed I believe mostly have solutions...
