When the screen is active/lit up there are no LED notifications. Once the screen turns off, the LED blinks. Guessing this is a minor power-saving feature.

And pinch zooming is nice, but I find it awkward to do with one hand so I find I still use the double tap zooming much more.
Yep, the -/+ still appears automatically on zoom-able websites.So we still can double tap to zoom with 2.1?
I don't think Adobe dropped the ball. Don't get me wrong, I feel like we COULD have this by now but Adobe didn't say it was coming until sometime int the first half of 2010 (which REALLY means we'll have it in May or June probably). Flash was NEVER set to be part of the 2.1 update.
I've had it for a while now (BB .9), but I really like the mic being on every keyboard...I don't use it all the time, but it comes in handy.
As for Flash, I think it will make the ship date (First 1/2 2010). It has been shown several times running on the Droid and the Nexus One. Now that it is clear that Droid and N1 (and newer provided the phone has the right processor and 2.1) will be the only one's to get it, I think it will be sooner rather than later. It would seem to me part of the reason they held off was there are not a lot of N1s out there, so what's the point. Now that Droid has (or will have in the next few days) 2.1, that's a lot more devices.
I do feel kinda bad for people who have Hero/Eris/etc phones. They are eventually going to get flash, but it will be flash lite (not the same as 10.1 for mobile)...
I noticed than, with 2.1, when I put my Droid in my home dock, the "Home" and "Illumination" buttons have switched places.
I don't really care where each of the buttons is, just an observation.
(I don't have or need dock runner, so I can't confirm whether or not it's changed there too.)
also like that now you can set up your yahoo email acct too
my battery has improved SIGNIFICANTLY! It's quite impressive I must say
The Contact shortcut is different in 2.1 then it was from 2.01. It used to bring up a full screen menu (or direct dial the contact if you selected a default #) but now it pops up a msgbox with options for calling, txting, FB, email, etc. Just a slight change but I liked they old (ugly looking) way b/c there is now an extra button to hit to make your choice.
Why couldn't you set up your yahoo account on the older version? My yahoo account has been on my droid since I bought it, just confused, what changed??
Better support for it, i think (if i read it right) you can just put in your email and it'll add all the pop setttings for you or something like that. Could be wrong, but that's how i read it.Why couldn't you set up your yahoo account on the older version? My yahoo account has been on my droid since I bought it, just confused, what changed??
On the media dock they have swapped the dark/light mode switch with the Homescreen button. The Homescreen button is on the bottom menu bar now and easier to hit to back out of the Media Dock.
Kind of a dumb question but how do you get to the media dock? Thanks!
