The blink notifications are similar to the add/remove pages hack; all the coding is done, it's just disabled for some reason. Check out the video below to see it in action.

From what I heard, it could have more copy and paste option and search for email)names and subject only), and some things to get an account for the app store.

And for those who have a major lust for Video and Flash...it is not there yet. laugh

Able to turn data usage on/off
Nice!! This will be a big one to me. If I buy it, I will have a GSM phone to take with me when travelling.. I couldn't afford data roaming in Europe because it's freaking expensive!

Apparently There's a major change in the bluetooth-assistant.js file. So while they didn't upgrade the version of the bluetooth app (still 1.0 in WebOS 1.2) they definitely did some work on it.

There are also even more additions than only the ones shown coming in version 1.2

The Palm Pixi is running 1.2 in all the videos of it and there are more features that were NOT leaked through the accidental install...

I just read that swipe down to close the launcher is being disabled in the new update, why would they do that?  I love that feature!

Also, the message forwarding mod will no longer work with this update...
