    Just tried there....when u double tap it it goes straight to your favorite numbers. What did it do before?

    The search functionality is handy for emails and stuff.

    Apparently it is for a set of options to let you control what the double-press does.

    How do you find battery life with the new OS? Battery life at present on my iphone lasts less than a day with moderate use.

    It could be just me but I think the battery isn't lasting as long with this beta. But, then again it's only beta so hopefully it'll improve with the final release.

    I figured out if u scroll left from the home screen there's a "search iphone" screen which is handy.

    There's also landscape txting. But I don't see the advantage, as you have a qwerty keyboard either way!

    the keyboard is much bigger in landscape mode, better for us with less girly hands.

    no, it's a closed beta. you have to be on the developer program to get it.
