A few areas are worrying, with the lack of Twitter, Flash, Silverlight and HTML5 video at launch, it's not clear what Microsoft's game plan is here. As a heavy user of Youtube & Twitter on Android, it seems hard to imagine life without it. There's potential that Microsoft might be intending on using the Zune hub as a way to manage video, but it's not clear yet."
