I am not so sure.
According to their time table, XNA is supposedly go gold this X'mas, and as of today we are still stuck with this "alpha" version, I don't see how it can come out in time, if a beta version is in deed going to happen. Besides, an alpha version is a feature-almost-complete version.
The backlight problem has been brought up at Microsoft Connect website several times (me included), and the answer is it's "by design" and they don't plan to change that. I just can't understand their logic of moval one of the most obvious and important power-saving feature on a handheld "by design". Well, I don't understand lots of things MS did (or did not do) to the zune, otherwise there weren't be this player ( and this thread ) at first place.
Cheers.
