    Are you getting this option though the Application's "Double Tap Home launch" settings menu? I'm not seeing this as a double-tap option, I would really like it though! I can only hold the home button and then the 8-app previously-used launcher pops up.

    Love the quantum leap in utility with Contacts. Tap the pic and get a nice little sideways scrollable widget. From here customize your contact settings to your hearts content.
    Google Search dramatically improved. I particularly like the customization in settings....settings/search/searchable items....(may have been there before but I just 'discovered' it).

    My MAJOR Disappointment is that with all the hype it is still not possible to Google Voice direct to calendar...dah! Should also be able to add a contact as well.

    A lessor disappointment when in Navigator can't get to layers? What's with that?

    Still the DX + 2.2 is absolutely awesome....one big problem though...who's going to buy my desktop?

    • Upload from video camera to YouTube seems to be working properly now.
    • Quickoffice included with upgrade
    • New Google News & Weather app/widgets
    • Calendar category colors seem to be more vibrant.
    • Under the Location & Security Settings there is a "Device Administration" function. Does anyone know what it does, or how to use it?

    Did anyone else's haptic feedback on stock keyboard become almost non-existent? I loved having a brisk shake-n-bake on every press!

    New changes with froyo

    So with the new update many things have changed lets make a list.

    I noticed that in options sounds and display are now two separate catagories.

    You can now move apps to your sd card. app 2 sd made moving apps very easy App 2 SD (move apps to SD) - Android app on AppBrain

    someone mentioned that the browser loads pages slower with flash installed, i havn't tried this yet.

    battery manager has a new look and I think a new feature, not sure about that as i didn't use it much. it also shows more programs in the list that shows how much each program is using your battery.

    the unlock screen now has "unlock" swipe and "vibrate" swipe. it used to be unlock and silent.

    under settings>applications>manage applications, there are a few new catagories like "running" "all" and "on sd card"

    post the new changes you found

    Do you have a task killer running? That may be stopping the music app when the screen shuts off.
