I found it far too restrictive. It's like buying a Toyota and only being allowed to use gas from the Toyota garage - or a Hotpoint Washing Machine, but only being allowed to use their own brand of washing powder. They should open up the spec of the iPod so that you can use any kind of audio format, instead of trying to monopolize the marketplace. Just my two pence! :o) Peace out x Don’t you get frustrated that you can only use iTunes?

Emulating the iPod UI seems a poor match, as you are trying to make the touchscreen do what a hardware control does on the iPod. Given the Treo has significantly more tactile controls, it seems a classic case of form over function. And 15 days beta? C'mon...
