New iCloud icon in Settings; new Storage and Backup icon too:

A new larger notification alert; ‘No New Notifications’ message in NC:

New “All Mail” icon for Gmail accounts; New Alarm popup for Snooze:

Newsstand ‘Easter Egg’ just like iBooks (this was from Beta 1 too); Messages app gets line breaks:

Under “Add Account” in Mail Settings…iCloud is now at the top, and MobileMe has moved to the very bottom; Google Maps suggested routes now have a ‘bolder’ line:

Miscellaneous notes sent in:

• In the Messages app, the keyboard will auto minimize as you scroll up to view older messages
• iTunes WiFi sync must be enabled in iTunes settings first
• 9to5Mac discovered 3G download support for OTA updates
• Beta 2 runs MUCH smoother than Beta 1, less lag
