It sounds like this is still a Beta version. How's it working for you so far?

It's certainly more zippy than Froyo, but I'm a bit worried about the battery usage.
Right now the Battery Use screen shows that 68% of the used battery went to the "Display".

Granted, I've been using the phone a lot today, but those percentages are way out of line.  This sounds a lot like the issue I've been having with my Desire S, which just went in for a re-flash due to a faulty task manager.

Installation went without a hitch, although, it re-flashes the Desire.  Everything will be deleted. Good thing I saved my contacts list.  HTC removed the wallpapers, facebook app (can be installed again via Market).  After update, there's only 120 mb left in internal storage Sad. 

Start up is faster and animation is a lot smoother.  I do not notice any performance hit, it's more responsive.  Did not have any issues with synching to pc using HTCsync.  Still monitoring battery life.
