Windows Phone 7 Sadness

More reasons not to get a wp7:

  • Can’t buy/download music directly from the phone. Huh? All (yes, all) of the music I purchased from iTunes I bought while I was out and about. I heard a song I loved, went iTunes on my phone, and purchased. Can’t do that on my wp7.
    [edit: yes you can. there’s a Marketplace link within the app.] 
  • Marketplace gets in a state where it just won’t open. It says “Loading” for about 5 seconds, and then quits. Rebooting the phone doesn’t work. It feels like the service is just down. Either way it’s unbelievable. This happened last night, the night before, and this morning. On each occasion I tried for ~5 minutes. Rebooted and everything. Super lame.
  • Had the same issue this morning with Music + Video. Happened after I synched. Difference though is that after a reboot it worked find.

Failing apps, and have to connect to a machine to get music. Really disappointing.
