Well, i've been running 1.1 all afternoon, and it seems pretty damn cool. I'm still a bit of a noob, so i cant really comment on any changes that were made, other than some obvious ones.
edit: Oh, and i didnt have to enter any Verizon shiz for data conns... I'm in the Maryland area... i'll have to test it out when i travel to Vegas next week. See if area affects it.
