Well it is not a point release so expect something as big or close to the changes from 1.x to 2.x. In that case it was the ability to run third party apps. This one should fix some of the deficiencies in the OS like push notifications, copy and paste, etc....
In any event I am looking forward to the changes.
I would like to see a refresh of the notification system, and status messages on the lock screen, which I believe was hinted at a while back in a patent filing.
Would be nice just to hit the home button while the device is in standby and see a list of recent emails, SMSs, etc.
On the contrary, please don't show a list of my info to someone when my phone is locked.
It would be opt in I would hope.
I imagine it would be disabled if you had a passcode set up.
I think they mean locked as in, screen powered off, slide the block to unlock - not "enter your password" locked.
Ironically, that's the point of this event. They don't have anything ready, they just want to tell people what's coming. If they tell you now, their precious event will be pointless.
