Am I the only one who things that the shade of green they are using for the Phone and Messages and Facetime icons is hideous? They use the same shade of green in Messages to show messages you have sent to non-iMessage phones. It's really hard to read the white text over that shade of green. I feel like it's burning my retinas out. 
Maybe i'm not understanding something, but won't that interfere with scrolling?
Its not really all that new. (This wasnt system wide in iOS - just the apps listed)

Just to echo what many have said, it's running 90% great on an iPhone 5. There are stutters here and there, but it's well worth the install if you're a registered developer. I am sitting 3 blocks away from the Moscone center while my brother gets to be inside and enjoying himself -_- I was very worried when I watched the keynote, but it really does look much better in person. It's just a very different OS visually, and it will take some time for people to get used to it. Command Center is probably the most useful change, but everything just feels more streamlined and beautiful. The keyboard is ultra responsive as ever, for anyone wondering. I can try to answer some specific questions if anyone has any, it seems that most that were asked have been answered in the thread so far.

It is a Retina display after all.
If you have not gotten to the provisioning profile yet and added your UDID, there is no sense in trying to install it. Just because you're registered does not mean your device is. (I hope I am understanding your question correctly)
can somebody please help me?! i went and downloaded and installed os7 without registering my udid hoping it would work... well it didnt im getting an unable to complete your activation message, at this point i just want to get back to os 6 but cant seem to figure out how to in itunes. i attached a pic of how itunes looks, any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks.
Hmm, wouldn't Spotlight be better if it was apart of the notification center, at the top? I'd love to be able to search my iPhone from within any app.
You did exactly what people warned you not to
Anyway, have you tried putting your phone in DFU mode and letting iTunes restore it?Hold down power button and home button on iPhone and keep holding until it resets and turns back on and shows in iTunes. Click Restore.

i know haha i was too excited to try out the new os. but no i havent tried dfu mode i will do that now thanks!
That screen took me some time too, I had to click through to another page, then go back and reload it a few times. Made me nervous, but it did go through
