The parameter is incorrect, ListPicker Items Exception

Question

I'm trying to figure out a solution for a weird exception that raises at runtime when I try to select an item from a ListPicker control in a Windows Phone 7 Application page, the page is really simple and contains very basic stuff, the exception message is : The parameter is incorrect, it's caught at App_UnhandledException event handler, Here is the xaml I'm using

        <toolkit:ListPicker x:Name="lstColor" Grid.Row="3" >
            <toolkit:ListPicker.Items>

This is caused by the limit of 5 Items, the only way to overcome it is to use an ItemTemplate. You cannot set the ListPickerMode and ItemCountThreshold properties in the August version of the toolkit. If you add 7 Items, the control will switch to full mode and add the items to the full mode popup's ListBox. This what causes this issue, the only work around is to use a template and a bound list :/ -1 to MS
