The one-click install without having to dick around with disk images and dragging icons from one part of a window to another is great.
But there's still lots of polish that it lacks.
It puts every app in the dock. What happens when someone wants to remove the app and tries to do so by dragging it off the dock?
The app still resides in the Applications folder but the user thinks it's gone. Now if he wants to download it again and goes back to the App Store the app is still marked as 'Installed' even though he thinks it's gone.
If he knows to look in the Applications folder and then tries to drag it to the trash, you get a UAC dialog asking for the root password.
So, they've partially solved the App install experience but not fully. The interface still has rough edges, which I'm sure they may eventually get right.
