did you get a chance to test it yet?

Well hey, glad to see they finally brought the site back up... I did give it a full day of testing, and the new FB is excellent. I updated to the new ext2 at the same time, so I'm having a hard time telling what caused what, but here's some of the things I've noticed.
Startup animation is way faster than it ever has been. I'm actually getting tearing sometimes.
SD video playback is much improved. I used to get a few dropped frames here and there, but this is much smoother. The Youtube app is actually on par with the WM one now for SD playback.
HQ video playback is actually worse, but it doesn't really matter since it was never viewable to begin with. It used to show two or three frames every 10 seconds or so, and now it seems to just lock up and stick on the same frame for the whole video.
Overall, the UI seems a little smoother. Not sure if it's just been a while since I've spent so much time in Android, but the edges and corners of buttons and widgets look cleaner than I remember.
