Wow, I didn't know about 1 or 2, thanks for posting!

I wonder how many things they've put in like this, for example, how many people know that if you've pinned the picture hub to your start screen but don't like the picture that's displayed, you can go in to the hub, hold your finger on the background and change the picture?

I'm not fond of the way un-sized text is automatically enlarged at fit-to-screen view (ie the default). This results in some parts of the page either having too large or too small text, depending on the zoom level.
