I love how stable the device is now... especially YouTube, I use that like crazy and yet it always crashed on me. Great list by the way.

and you can access the different files by clicking. For example: Downloads will bring you up a page with your files and you can delete them at your will

Thanks for the list. I've been able to confirm all of those on my xoom except I can't find the upload/download indicators for the Wifi Status icon. Specifically, where/what is that?

Thanks. I was coming back here to point out that I now see the tiny arrows.

Also I've noticed that the Android market shows all installed apps including the ones I've downloaded from Amazon.
Plus, the stock browser controls(when swiping from edge) has more options.
