Anyone get in?
I got mine today, it's pretty sweet too, I haven't figured out how to access Last.fm yet but Twitter and Facebook are there, not gonna bother with Twitter since that's stupid but Facebook works pretty well on it, doesn't seem to be integrated with the guide window so you can't use it while playing games but otherwise it's pretty cool, it also has Zune video player but I haven't seen that yet.
Im in, no updated yet though :)Quote:

Still can't seem to access Last.FM. xD Ah well.
Same here, you'd think they'd of dished them out by now. Especially as there's meant to be another wave this evening. I'm looking forward to trying all three as I'm an avid user of Twitter, Facebook and Last FM however I always have a computer next to me so I'm never really going to use these services all that much. If you could Tweet during games, read statuses on Facebook from the guide and listen to Last FM while playing it'd be much better but sadly that isn't the case.Quote:

Haven't had a look at zune yet but yea Last.FM is pretty cool, I can't see myself using it though since you can't listen to anything but "radios" which don't play what you want really.
I highly doubt it but does last.fm have the audioscrobber? I'd rather my music was scrobbled than stream music from them.
No I haven't evne applied, I'm glad I'd rather wait for the real thing to come out. My mate's having party issues and I can't live without parties so I'm glad. :P
Got update just now, facebooks pretty sweet :)
It does yes, it scrobbles the radio's you listen to on Last FM.Quote:

I like Facebook also, it's quite good, the privacy settings are a bit of a pain though. I'm pretty sure all my XBL friends can now see my facebook which isn't what I want, I want it so I can add people off my facebook onto Xbox Live but it lacks basic privacy features it seems. Very difficult to explain though. I like how when you post a status on the Xbox it says "via Xbox Live" much like it does "via Facebook for iPhone" or "via Facebook for Blackberry"
aha, "via xbox live" i dont know if i want people knowing that :P but still thanks for the update
why not? would it merk ur hard man reputation?Quote:

Owning an Xbox 360 isn't sad, it's playing it excessively, constantly talking about it or spending ridiculous amounts on accessories which is sad and definitely something to be ashamed of.
what did you have to sign up to to get the preview?

Not really, if you had your Xbox 360 in your living room you could quite easily post a Facebook status like "Just about to start homework" or "Anyone coming out on Friday?" etc, nothing wrong with that. I guess if people are posting "LULZ JUST TOTALLY PWNED SOME NUBZ ON COD4, THE JUGGERNAUT IDIOTS WERE NO MATCH FOR MY SILENCED MP5 AND TURTLEBEACH MWHAHHAHHAHA"Quote:

I never said there was anything wrong with it, did I?Quote:
