Hmmmm, it's a good start, but all they've got is the start page and moving over to the list of programs + pin/unpin. There's a wholllllleeee lot more to WP7/metro than this.

I'm not a developer, so I don't know how much work this took, but from a client perspective my next question would be "So when will you get the rest of it working?" I certainly wouldn't be willing to 'invest' in this based on what is shown here.
