I just put CM7 on my TP last night. Its working fine but it just feels unfinished!

I don't know how else to explain it, I just don't get the interface. Its pretty clunky. WebOS is much prettier in my opinion.

I just don't get why I can't set a wallpaper properly. It crops it funny and zooms in on it until its all pixilated.

I also don't understand whats with the little icons all by themselves in the middle of the screen.

Other than that it seems very very stable, I had no problems using the market or wi-fi. All seems good!
 
It is 'unfinished'

Wallpapers: Just as with webos the image you use for a wallpaper needs to be formatted correctly

Icons in middle of screen: Move them to the side or delete them.

Prettiness: Slap on a different theme or add a live wallpaper or replace the icons. Pretty much everything can be customised in android.

Weird place to start for your first time Android use :)

This is an Alpha build, not expected to be finished at all and the version being used it not designed for the large screen tablets. Wait for ICS to come out in a month or so (hopefully); it is much more polished for tablet devices and provides a more synchronous user experience across all applications.
