Yeah, I downloaded the preview app from Microsoft's website. I created my Zune Tag (Boots Randolph, hehe), but selected back on the "enter info" screen, and when I tried to move forward again, it told me that name was already taken. Fine. Don't work, even though I just entered my tag.

I too am running MCE 2005... but I didn't have any issues with Options not working. I'm wondering if these guys took too much of a shortcut, and just based everything on WMP 11, changed the skin, took out a few of the PlaysForSure features, added a few XBox features, and called it a day. It's really a tragedy that they left this whole project til the last minute. I can imagine the field day Apple fanboys are going to have when they see this. So much for the Zune's "viral" campaign or any of its other positive features. This may just be the deal-breaker here.... I hope they update it soon.
