I bought a shirt and the giant cotton swab from the Avatar Marketplace. I had some extra points, so I used it on that. I'm satisfied with it. |

It's not that bad. 50 cents for an eye patch. I paid about $5 for my outfit. The crazy looking outfits are expensive. I noticed a lot of my friends bought the odst armor right away. |

Yes the Avatar Marketplace is ridiculous, but the second they announced Avatars we all knew it was coming. Whether it sticks around will depend on if people buy.
Personally I'm excited to get my first unlock of Avatar clothing from a game. |

Well I just got the Update now unlike you lucky folk lol. I think that I would buy avatar Cloths if they where like 10-50 MS Points but with 400 MS Points being on all the good stuff I will never buy anything and I pray that nobody else will what a rip off! |

Got he update last night as well, signed up the day before. Netflix browsing is pretty cool. Their needs to be a search feature but if you're too lazy to get on the internet its great. I like how they added a Solutions Tab to the My Xbox window, right before system settings. Everything seems to be working faster as well. I had extra points after buying Dark Corners so I gave in and bought the RC Warthog. Never bought any themes or anything. And it was just so cute.. haha. |

so far the lag on the games list is gone as well... I think I understood why it happened now since everything comes up with a placeholder image instead of the actual one until it has a chance to load... ran into this problem with a few scripts I wrote a few years back... things just lock up browsers while its running instead of checking back for a response every few milliseconds (making it more unnoticeable to users) |

I haven't tried it yet but pretty sure you have to be a Netflix subscriber to be able to watch flix |

Hmm, I don't have netflix so I'll probably miss out on stuff. Hopefully you don't have to have netflix in order to watch with a movie with someone who does.
And I just found out that there will be a third wave:

So I may still have a chance. |

It's not that great. The thing I like is that it makes a noise in the headset when you join/leave a party. Avatar rewards will be cool when they come out. Netflix stuff is a big part too, but I don't know too many people with it. |
