The os seemed very fluid and the portrait mode is amazing. I love that the bezel gestures rotate their function with the screen rotation. Did anyone else notice some choopyness in the 7 digital music store? This might be due to it being so new...

Did they modify slightly the left/right bezel gesture? Maybe I'm wrong but previously, I think the gesture would zoom out the app window and then you would swipe left/right to switch to another app. Now, the bezel gesture itself switches the apps.
By the way, funny this thread's mood is so different from the other (whinny) thread.

I think it was choppy due to the fact it was accessing data via a 3G wifi hotspot (iphone or android) in a sketchy coverage area.

Camera, clock, calculator, and browser icons have changed as well for the better. Really like the new clock one in particular. Looks like a watch face. Referenced BGR hands on.
*"BlackBerry" tab on the menus is now "BlackBerry Bridge"
*Highlight over selected menu (All, Favorites, BlackBerry Bridge, etc..) is now blue instead of a transparent gray.
*portrait (duh) looking SAWEET
ya missed Appworld being installed and bing
the battery icon looks the same to me, but the wifi and battery have been `switched`. plus theres a new icon by the side of the bluretooth, and is that a notification in the top left? first iv seenn of it.
also the `side swipe` multitasking seems to work same as b4
if anyone wants to compare, heres a vid i shot yesterday, but its the MWC build (i show all the options screens)

the calendar icon is under the bridge section so i dont think is `native` as such (didnt work as no bridged BB available)
this was a while back, February maybe. but i could be going crazy. i specifically remember the calendar being opened w/out being paired to a bb. oh well, i'm craza
