New in DP4

[baryon]

Now that people should start being able to download DP4, post anything new that you find in it.

I don't have Lion myself, but from Apple's site I think I can tell that they have a new fabric background for Mission Control, and a new blue space-themed desktop background too, along with new brushed metal icons for Launchpad and Mission Control.

What else?

-Downloads window is gone entirely. You can use only the popover via the toolbar button.

Launchpad
-New icon: round silver disc with a rocket ship icon in the middle.

Misc.
-Photo Booth automatically opens in full screen mode the first time you open it. If you leave full screen and quit, it remembers that.

I remember seeing a new icon for Mail.app in the keynote... it was a silver disk with a postage stamp in the middle. Did it change? (I hope not, it's ugly)

Are you serious? I give Apple a pass on most things, but I never click my trackpads, I am a tapper. I would be much obliged if any willing Devs would complain about this change. At least give us the option.

In Safari when you click a download link, an icon flies from the link up to the Downloads button in the toolbar.

So I installed the iCloud beta software for DP4 but I haven't been able to test it out. All I get is a button to "Upgrade to iCloud" but the website it opens just says that iCloud is coming soon.
