I am not a developer, so any features you can add will be great.

This list is from BGR...
-Preference to open pages in Safari in a new page or in background (amazing!).
-More alert choices for emails, calendar, and the ability to buy more.
-Ability to create keyboard shortcuts (autotext) to replace custom phrases. -The default entry is “omw” which is replaced with, “On my way!”
-Software update option in settings to check for the latest OS.
-Sync now button to wireless sync to iTunes
-Ability to customize how notifications in Notification Center look — you can customize how many recent ones to show, 1, 5 or 10, if it’s showed in the lock screen, if it’s in Notification Center, and also the alert style, banner or alert style.
-Twitter installs directly from the settings page if it’s not installed directly, you aren’t even taken to the App Store.
-FaceTime button in iMessage messages at the top now
-Tweeting photos is, so so slick. It displays on Twitter as powered by Photobucket, and it’s from iOS.
-There’s a new option to print out from the Maps app… hilarious.
-You can make new albums right from the device itself in Photos.
-You can move and add photos to albums.
-You can customize the default alert times. This is so needed — so now when you enter a calendar entry, you don’t have to set the default alert time you like — I’m a 15 minute calendar alert type of guy.
-Email flagging doesn’t look to be enabled in this beta, though S/MIME support is. Never mind, it is. You have to go into the message and tap “mark”.
-It seems that Reminders sync with Exchange (Tasks basically), but you can’t set location-based reminders if you’re on Exchange, just with iCloud. You can selectively choose where to sync the reminder though, it’s just not streamlined if you use Exchange.
-You can set the caller ID for FaceTime calls, so if you call someone, you can choose it to display your cellular number or email address.
-In the weather app, there is a new pane for a current location which will show you weather for wherever you are.
-When syncing with iTunes you can use the device normally ‚ no more syncing screen!
-You can delete individual calls from the call list — I know a lot of people that just got super excited.
