So far I've noticed changes to the way it shuts down. Anything else ?

Driving Mode has been added.
Power saving quick button in notification bar has been added
Clock Graphic is different color
Icon for Apps is different
Task Button now gives option to 'Remove all'
New browser- at least it has a new color scheme
New Apps: Next Issue, S Suggest
Settings slide buttons changed a bit (from on / off to I/O)
Power off menu
Quadrant Score's seem higher 2882 with Quadrant 2
Shutdown menu different
No more book mark widget

EDIT: Biggest change of all: new keyboard with predictive text. (did not see it due to using Swift Key)

Probably not going to happen anytime soon.

Also, I read somewhere that JB doesn't allow for landscape view on the home screens. Only portrait. Not sure how I would like that since I use my Tab 2 in landscape 99.9% of the time.

Also, has the watery drop sound effects always been there when touching the screen, or is that new with this update?

Battery draining much faster today, not sure if that's a fluke or not...

That has to be a Nexus 7 feature. They can't release that to 10" tablets. Not with say the Transformer... does not make any sense. Isn't the Nexus 7 aimed at content as well?

I won't have a chance to try .0.4 until later. Any improvements ?

Chrome was just released for Android. Pretty nice. Especially when trying to hit a link that is really small text, brings up a window with your selection options.

I can't seem to get this update. I connect my tab to KIES and click through the 2 disclaimers..one being the steps about the update ....the second being something about a backup. I clicked yes to both and get taken to a page about pbs(or something to that effect as i'm not in kies now) and then dumped back to the main screen.

What gives?

I have tried several times since seeing this post and my Tab2 7" continues to say "No Update Available"..My device has 4.0.3 version.. could it be they are "timing" their release of the update to see how many problems they are creating again, or maybe they decided some of the issues were not worth putting up with and decided to wait a while and fix their release again?.. just saying..no update available..

I have not see any issues to speak of. i would assume they have to time it. thats a big download.
