I have had one for 2 weeks now and generally I am pleased with it. The sound (once I got rid of the basic ear buds) is very good and mostly the controls are nice. I do however have some niggles with it.
1. The lack of specific Volume buttons to me is quite annoying, I really would prefer having dedicated buttons for that.
2. The screen for me while watching video is on the whole very nice, as long as the video is bright. Dark colours seem to be a bit muddy on my one.
3. Itunes. Unfortunatly I am not a big fan. Just a personal preference thing but not that thrilled being forced to use it.
4. Safari. On the whole it renders pages very nicely and with little issue, however it seems to have problems with pages that have frames that have a set viewable resolution and are very long. You find yourself having to scroll a looong way down sometimes as it wants to render the whole frame and not just the visible part it seems.
Also would like to be able to set the page width/rendered resolution manually. That is a wish however and not really a complaint.
5. It's soo shiny.. Too bloody shiny.. not to worry tho.. the back of mine will very soon be a mat finish from all the scratches. :P
6. Why the cut down version of the calendar? Minor issue but annoying.
On the whole tho a nice item that does what it says well.

90% is about right.
