I think another feature added to the iPhone/iPod Touch with the 2.0 software update was the ability to create On-The-Go playlists. This feature has been around for years on the iPods. (I covered up the songs in the picture)

how do u get into this?
^ Select 'Playlists', and the very top it will say 'On-The-Go'. Select that and you will be able to choose the songs to add.
No, it's been there since it first came out. My iPod pretty much lives on the functionality of On-The-Go playlists, and I can say it's been there since 1.1.1.

Zapfino is no longer included as a font on iPhone 2.0. Where it was before.

change brightness while in video mode
Been reading this thread to find out if you can change brightness now with 2.0 when in video mode.
Apparently not. Pity.
That is the only thing that would make me jump to 2.0, despite all the ugliness. And no, auto-brightness does not help.
Apple, are you reading this? I can change brightness in video mode so easily on my iPod 5th gen.! Why can't you do it on the Touch, a real video player?

Press home button, go to Settings, adjust the brightness, go back to the video.
It's unnecessary to include an extra brightness bar when it's so simple to access to the primary one.
I see that someone here needs to get an iPod touch (<< that would be me). Or at least play with them more at the Apple Stores so I'm more familiar with them.
I agree. So much you can do with it.

Thanks for making it obvious just how annoying those 6 steps are (including the change from horizontal to vertical and back again and finding the video. And if it's not right yet start everything anew. So if this is all so easy why did they implement brightness change in video mode on the iPod 5th Gen.? You must be a Windows programmer.
Agreed. The Samsung P2 has all the video related functions available from the video play screen. For that matter it has all the music and all the photo related functions available from their respective players. I think Apple just got so excited about how cool the touchscreen UI was that they overlooked obvious efficiencies.
I'm looking at it this way: There are things they could improve, and that means we can expect continuous firmware updates. No point in having it perfect, eh?
