Help Gingerbread 2.3.3

I bought a new Arc yesterday and after reading this post, I checked my Android version. It said 2.3.2. I hit the update key, it went out and checked, and came back and said I have the latest.

What gives???

Mine says there is an update to 2.3.3 (phone bought in Germany).
Can I have some feedback about the new version? What are the changes/benefits except Facebook integration?

Thanks.

Battery battery life and better touchscreen are the things i've noticed.

Downside is unless you have an unlocked bootloader you can't root (yet)

Yes I noticed about battery life. Official changelog:

  • Battery performance
  • General software stability
  • Wi-Fi stability
  • HD Video recording performance (Xperia arc)
  • Touch responsiveness
And a Facebook integration - not of any use for me though.
I noticed pretty handy thing - when you receive a message or you have a missed call it will show up on lock screen.

Cheers!
