Microsoft Windows Media Player 11 beta 2

I've been using Windows Media Player 11 beta 2 for a while now, mainly to synchronise my music from my laptop to my miniSD card to listen to on my O2 XDA Atom. The only thing that really bugs me is that it's not true synchronisation, for example, it doesn't on sync pass back to the Media Player the play count or date last played. I use a set of Jabra BT620s bluetooth headphones which have volume, skip track and play pause on them, so i never touch the interface for rating songs as I'm listening to them on the way to work and at work.

There is mention of a "Reverse Sync", but I can't find anything about it in the Interface, Help or on the Internet other than all the reviews that are basically the same as the M$ site but cut and paste around a bit!

I wonder with the new Zune player coming out and rumoured mobile + video + music Zune device that this will push the very basic Mobile Media Player currently with Windows Mobile 2005.

I must admit that I think that Windows Mobile is pretty basic in regards to what you can actually do in most of the applications. They're gonna have to step up their game as Symbian and Palm stamp forward...I just hope Apple come back to the board with a new Newton...they were way too early to market when they first released that.
