Here are the ones that have already been identified:

* Automatic reboot of the phone and loss of all datas
* Pictures assigned to Live Tiles (people, pictures, etc) are very low resolution pictures
* Camera settings are not saved
MARKETPLACE
* WP7 freezes during Maketplace scrolling
* Marketplace crashes, then refuses to load (reboot necessary)
* In the Marketplace menu, pushing the ‘back’ button only leads to a black screen
* App updates failing to download/install
* Update of some specific apps failing due to “licensing problems” (IMDB, foursquare, Touchnote, Wipolo, some HTC apps)
* Error Code c101a24b when downloading/updating apps
CONNECTIVITY / SYNC / EMAILS

* Error code 86000206 when synchronizing to Hotmail account
* WP7’s calendar refuses to push to Google calendar
* Emails menu tends to start too easily/often in ‘landscape mode’ (may depends on the hardware?)
* Emails will not display included images (still not solved)
* No way to save a picture included in an email (if the pic is included and not attached)
ZUNE:
* Zune crashes, then refuses to load (reboot necessary)
* Zune does not always display the artist as background (which remains black)

* The volume of Zune may vary (e.g. louder after receiving a phone call)
* Sometimes Zune’s background displays the artist of the preceding song /or the next song
* Turn off the sound of certain games may possibly also turn off the sound in Zune [to be confirmed. (e.g. RocketRiot or Bye Bye Brain)]
