How many people here are like me and didn't know that through your windows live account you can find your phone via GPS, lock your phone, and even erase your phone?

It's under Windows Live(I thought it was a home button in the top left but it pops up a menu)> Devices. Click your phone and it'll show you where it is.

What else is there that I don't know?!
 
Direct upload of photos to SkyDrive is great. I had to take a picture at work and get it on my computer. I could have emailed it, of course, but once I took the picture, just uploaded to skydrive and copied it to my computer.

Also, using Vision to copy text directly to a Word document is really awesome. Didn't find that until yesterday. (Well, I've only had the phone for a week).
 
There's a whole stickied Hints and Tips post. You may want to read that.

For me, one of my biggest "AH-HA's" was using the voice search. It can search songs as well. Don't need those apps that will tell you what a song is anymore. It's a built-in ability.

wow I didn't know that one either and I had the phone longer. One can also use Bing to look up places and then get public transit directions to that place if mango transit is installed (just pan over to apps then select mango transit).
