At the risk of sounding like your typical whinging poker player, here's what I don't like so far.
No way of saving hand histories to disk. I appreciate that you might want to ban HUDs, and if so fair enough, but I'd still really like to upload hands into HEM and look at why I've cocked it up again later. You aren't going to get many people posting them on here either.
Why when you are in the small blind and you raise, is the total raise. E.g. my Small Blind is 2p. I adjust the slider to 16p. I press raise. My raise is now 18p. I'm pretty sure that's not what anyone wants.
I'd like to know how much is in the pot not including any action so far. So for example...

The $2.62 figure is missing. Is that $1.25 bet a half pot bet? A quarter pot bet? On Sky, I have to do some mental arithmetic that makes me play slower.

Is there really any need to cover up how much money someone has when they are ready to act. If I'm planning on doing a sexy squeeze with my 63o, I'm going to want to know how much AVOCET is playing. Now I have to wait for him to act, then decide. In fact I've just noticed it's worse than that- it will say "Called" for a few seconds, then show me how much he is playing. Bang goes another few seconds.
The Raise and Raise Any preset radio buttons make no sense in NL or PL poker. If you start spreading limit, then fair enough.
Other players cards are too small, and I run the risk of missing who still has cards.
The games play too slow. That's got to be a big problem for you. Not sure how much you can do about it, but one point I've noticed is that it pauses for a few seconds after showdown unnecessarily.
