What changes do YOU see with Froyo 2.2?

I will say the wifi seems to be working much stronger. I used to get 14d/3u Mbps in my room, now I'm getting 16/5.5. As mentioned somewhere else, the Recent program is a lot cleaner too :)
 
Found something else....

You cannot view your pictures in your HDTV under slideshow.

It shows the slideshow with a nice fade effect on the phone, but my HDTV could not pick-up pictures.
 
1. Internal Memory has shrunk dramatically
2. Youtube actually plays a video all the way through without constantly pausing and buffering
3. Linpack 38 avg vs 8 on 2.1
4. 30 fps still a problem but oh well I guess
5. phone will rotate in any direction you turn it 360
6. still able to make phone calls without a Apple condom on it. lol
7. browser is more refined and zooms in smoother and text is a little smaller
8. zippier in every aspect. Especially the manage apps option on settings
9. Gmail has been tweaked and looks and functions a lot better
I'm curious, for # 5, is this the HTC Sense? Does it now work in landscape mode?

Since it seems people are having diffrent experiences... I saw this and tried it.
I used homeswitcher to pop back into HTC and no joy.
HTC SENSE for me will still not go into landscape mode. So went back to launcerpro.
 
Also noticed with speedtest via wifi my upload speed went from 3mbps to 7-8mbps, the down speeds via wifi are still in the 15-18 mbps range via comcast ultra.
 
A couple more..

Real Player just broken now. But, native video program now shows videos full screen, only reason I was using Real Player.

Update all now in market. No longer have to go through and click each update.
 
much faster boot time, linpack scores really high, even with live wallpaper, and tons of widgets loaded, lots of apps do not work properly; I assume they need update to work with 2.2, much smoother operation, using ADW launcher
Bluetooth stuff is still goofy; doesnt really work like I thought it would, but I have Vlingo and.Blueant app installed, so there may be conflicts going on
 
Holding down the home key brings up the Recent Apps, Old news.

But its was given a new look, much better than the old one.

But still only eight apps... why not use the whole screen and give me 16 (or more). Then I'd almost never need to go anywhere but there as I don't use more than 16 apps, regularly.
 
One odd thing I noticed is that only one of my installed apps are showing up in the Market widget now. They are all correctly showing up in AppBrain though. Anybody else seeing this?
