Has anybody else tried it yet?

It's awesome, and a really great improvement over version 10.
Really great visual layout as it uses album art really well to help manage your library and so on.

You can get it here, but you will need system restore turned on if you wish to uninstall it, but I can't see any reason why you would want to narf

It is shiny.
I like being able to make it a pretty colour properly.

I'd go for it if it wasn't a beta. Microsoft is one company I will not try betas from anymore. It scares me :(
