Ok, I have the spiffy 1.16 version installed on my xv6800 and here's what I've found so far as changes other than the export text file :
1. hardware keys are working again. you can now send your sms using the right soft-key (FINALLY!). you can also use the left soft-key to go back and the right to open the menu (when not sending an sms).
2. when you create a new, or respond to, an sms you no longer have to tap inside the text box. the text box automagically has focus and you can type away.
3. they changed SOMETHING with the skinning.. not sure what, but my custom skin i had made won't work anymore. app won't even load with it. stuck with default until i have some time to look into it.
Could be other stuff, that's what I've found in the first few mins of playing around
