I was just talking with a co-worker and durring the conversation his nexus1 (I have an EVO) vibrated. He checked it and to his surprise it was downloading Froyo. After it installed we looked to see what was new, as there was nothing that explained what the update did. There were a couple of neat things like the ability to rotate the screen 180 degrees, full flash and the ability to install programs to the SD card (even though we could not find one that would). He also had a "tethering" option, but not any "in your face" changes. They seem to be subtle changes, after all it is only a point release. After fooling around with it for about an hour...I still want Froyo...but its not a big change from 2.1.

Froyo is all of that considering it is the first build with JIT included (this helps to speed up your device). Built in USB and WiFi thethering. Plus a bunch of other things. A bit of reading will get you the rest of them.

The in your face UI changes are supposed to come with Gingerbread.
