Some things are nice (lots of coverflow type effects added in) but is very much a beta. I have a profile thing installed from my carrier (Softbank) that will log me into the wireless network whenever I'm near a hotspot. In this beta, it opens the stupid podcasts app every time that happens! (not to mention how inconsistent it is about logging me in).
Also lots of crashes. Happens a lot when tapping on a youtube video on a web post or from the facebook app or whatever. Swaps to the youtube app, starts to play, crash back to the springboard. Go to it again immediately in the same manner as before... no crash second time around.
Battery life... sucks.
Damn music app is like the listing in iTunes now. Shows cover art for everything so the first few times you try scrolling through your music, it lags like hell. Even worse: No options for different display modes. Lyrics don't have as much real estate as before, confined to a small square area. I need this because I like to sing Japanese songs but can't read Kanji... I put lyrics in romaji format on my music files.
Some of my files (with a Japanese artis name) don't even show up anywhere when I look at artists... only when I actually search for the artist does it show the songs.
I think I'll like it for the most part when its smoothed out and ready for release.
Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!
