Just tried it out, kind of cool using it with the new IE app on the 360 but navigation is wonky

The update didn’t show up on my market place as “Update available.
I searched for Smart Glass and it told me it was not compatible with my device and wouldn’t let me install it.

I then went to XBOX and removed Xbox Companion and trying re-installing it through windowsphone.com. After being unsucessfull I received a link on my e-mail and was able to get the app to install. During installation it stated that my phone (HTC HD7) is not compatible with some features.

I am really pleased this came to WP7.5. I thought this would be an WP8 exclusive. The IE browsing is really cool and intuitive. This really shows how great smart glass is going to be once all pieces are in place.
