Great app. I've got a couple suggestions if you'd like:

First off, the skip keys are "backwards" (ie left should skip back and right should skip forwards).
Next, the volume's a bit funny. It's a bit annoying that it sets your current volume as "max", so you have to first turn up your Zune's volume before entering the app. The volume jumps are also a bit too large; if you could implement something similar to the Zune's native volume controls, that would be mighty good.

Finally, if you're missing something for the middle button, might I suggest that you put in some sort of music play/pause feature, either on the original play/pause button (and then put the timer play/pause on the middle button) or on the middle button (and keep the timer play/pause button the same).

Finally, I don't know if there's a way to turn the screen/backlight off, but if there is that'd be great, as if you're timing for extensive periods, I'd imagine it's quite a drain on the battery life.

Great work so far, though! Thanks so much (I've been using this timer for running, which is great, because I don't need to bring a watch now).
