Curious about performance since it's so smooth already on 10.2. Looking forward to impressions.
 
Why is it 1.92GB for a .1 update?
As an early beta, it probably includes instrumented components so Apple can easier diagnose issues with the changes being made – it's (likely) the same reason why a final (or close-to-final) developer release is similarly large, as you're going from an instrumented build to a non-instrumented build.
 
Multitasking glitch seems to be fixed so far. Going to multitasking is much smoother and a more consistent animation
Thanks for the update!

My iPad Air 2 has a glitch where the keyboard locks up in landscape. Turning it to portrait and back to landscape fixes it. Odd. PB tester here. I hope this beta fixes this glitch.
 
Same here. But I would update in a heartbeat if I knew they had fixed the ever annoying Bluetooth audio skipping.
I never had this happen in my car or using my PowerBeast. But the other night I was playing music thru my Vizio sound bar and it was skipping like crazy!
