Agreed here... some get it ... some do not - the ethos of the UI is quite different then anything else out there. It is simplistic and basic to focus on crazy long performance. My battery life on my LG Optimus 7 is quite long - I can get through 1.5 to 2 days without charging and just using the phone here and there. Instead of focusing on a bunch of fancy animations Microsoft focused on transition and integration. The experience is quite unique in this regard.

Quite literally I spend less time fiddling around with UI customizations and more time using applications and so far the apps are not bad - especially those XBL games.

IS it perfect? Nope... but I it.
