Anyone willing to explain/show the new UI elements in 4.0? It's hard to know what is new since I don't use an iPhone daily.

Thanks.
 
Ui wise you have the following.

1, The ability to change the background.
2, a multitaking bar called up with a doubletap of the home button.
3, folders ( drag icons onto eachother like games for example creates a folder so you can then tap a folder to get to all your games rather than swipe through pages.
4, a new icon next to the battery meter to indicate an app is using location services.
 
Anyone else think that the new iPhone 4.0 OS looks like a jailbroken iPhone? Hahahaha. It looks like someone with WinterBoard and a custom Dock image with reflections. I bet there's someone out there that has been rocking that same exact setup for a year now.

*Looks at iPhone*

Yep.
 
Voice Memos and Messages have new icons. It's hard to tell, but I think all of the other icons were changed very slightly.

Edit: Is the weather icon now a 'live' icon? In the current firmware, it displays 73 but in this screenshot it's showing 23?

the dock reminds me of the 1st gen iPod Touch on version 1 OS

I think it may just be the country settings when you're set to Celsius. Actually I'm almost certain. Just saw that was Rogers and they use Celsius in Canada right?
