Funny you should mention that, because the Store is the most unstable app for me. It hangs once every four times I start it -- either that, or the startup delay is just so long that I lose patience and kill it.
I'm probably running into some kind of edge case that they forgot to test, but which repros 25% of the time on my machine. I'm running 8, not RT. Microsoft can't blame this one on Nvidia.
Also, search in the Store is terrible. I have a very hard time finding apps, even ones where I know the name. Too many irrelevant results -- they really ought to do a web-search style results page, where they show the description and highlight parts of it. I'm not going to try 50 results just to read the description for each one.
I stopped using Mail and went back to Outlook.
News and Weather are great apps. Snappy UI, fast refreshes. Just wish they'd integrated the radar maps with Bing Maps, instead of using that animated GIF (or maybe it's a WMV).
