Default HTC Shift and Vista SP1

At first sight it looks like SP1 is not going down well on the Shift. The ShagCtrl (Shift Control Center) application (who for god's sake invented that shortname ShagCtrl??) exits with an eventID 1000 error and there seem to be some overall stability issues ....

Because of the intregration between vista and snavue I am afraid we will have to wait for htc updates. This weekday I ran windows update and the graphic card driver was updated. As result I only could work on 800x600. Higher res was disabled so I ve to undo the update....

Wow- I thought SP1 would be the least of problems... I thought about getting one but guess I'll hold off a bit until some of these problems have been sorted out. SP1 is something I wouldn't want to be witout... doesn't have major new 'things' in it, but the summary of all the little fixes is really nice.
What is your general perception of the device so far? Is the battery life too constricting? I was looking for a machine that would allow me to do some 'heavy' email (filing / writing) while on the road in Outlook / Vista and do a quick check / sorting of emails when I just have 5 minutes or so where booting up a machine wouldn't make the most sense... does it seem to do this (provided we get a better email client on CE (Flexview for example) installed on the machine?
What are our chances of getting more storage to the WM6 part? the 256MB RAM on board don't quite do it for me... and apparently the SD card or HD cannot be accessed...?

Thanks!

Does the Shift Control Center start properly at boot and is it active in the tray?

Yup, everything works perfectly.

First thing I did was put RTM SP1 on, Office 2k7 SP1 and a few other bits n bobs, and it's all good.

Strange. The second install of SP1 ended up not giving any headaches at all ... all applications work smoothly ... (even though it was exactly the same SP1 installer)

Hi. Do you see any improvement on SP1? Should I update?

SP1 may not show earth-shattering improvements, but it does improve significantly on file transfers, both to disk and through LAN/WAN so I would say yes.
