From using the DI the past couple weeks, I've noticed a lot of bugs and incomplete features that should be included in Android and Sense. The rundown is as follows...
Camera:
1) Sometimes the camera app closes when you press the button to take a picture. The picture isn't saved.
2) Sometimes when you scroll through pictures and wait for them to load up in a higher quality, they remain blurry.
Internet:
1) When using the bookmarks widget, when you click on a link, it sometimes opens the browser but does nothing.
2) You can't edit the options that you see when you press "menu". So I have to do a couple clicks to access my browsing history. Meanwhile, I rarely ever add bookmarks, and that's on the main panel.
3) When playing audio through the browser, you can't multitask or it stops playing.
Market:
1) No way to filter out foreign apps.
2) No way to uncheck what security measures you want to give an app.
3) Some apps have no options to make them stop closing. Like the Scoremobile one for example. Once you download it, it runs forever unless you uninstall it.
Phone:
1) When you get a new voicemail you must listen to it or else it'll never clear from your notification bar.
2) There's no way to quickly access the list of running services on the phone. So you must work your way through the menus to find them (annoying).
3) Cannot easily toggle between stock Android and Sense.
4) No percent left reader out of the box for the battery icon.
5) Cannot change the folder icons.
6) Cannot rearrange the app drawer.

All these issues lie directly with the buggy software. I know some of you guys are going to come in here and say "well it's what you're doing with your phone"...nope. It's the software.
Also you guys need to stop lying about the battery life on this phone. It sucks. PERIOD.
None of the charging tricks work, ATK doesn't work, and turning off bluetooth/wifi/etc. really doesn't have any effect on the battery.
I have brightness at 10%, everything off, and the thing dies by 2pm on a normal day's use.
