I like a lot of these. I have an issue with the Mission control feature. It's nice and it looks pretty, but it's not necessary. To go back to an app that you were using do you really need to be able to see a screenshot of where you were? The linear fashion of the multi-tasking bar is meant to convey a sense of time which a grid doesn't do as well or as obviously. Do I read to the left or do I read down or do I read in a spiral? I did like the way that you could pick a page in safari to go to because that is a pain sometimes.
The "flipcons" are an interesting way to overcome widgets. You get to see small bits of information like a widget but it's not always there.
Notification Center, I'm not sure why it really bothers people that it pulls down over instead of being under the home screen, but to each his own.
Overall these look very good. Great job.

My smartphone lets me quickly move around between apps getting things done. So I'm "busy" with a game or reading news, I get a call requiring my attention, I change apps a few times gathering information and making changes and then ... what was I doing again? I could use that visual reminder. Also, more choice for getting the information you need in a manner you want is a good thing.
