Have been running this for a few days now. As with any beta there are a few issues cropping up but otherwise have to say this new version is superb.

New features
- New installer
- UI facelift
- FileRep service (cloud based)
- Streaming updates
- Sandbox & Autosandbox improvements
- Browser protection improvements
- Remote assistance feature to help your friends with computer troubles
- Support tool
- Export/Import settings
- Screensaver facelift
- runs on Win8 Developer Preview
- and many, many security improvements

I particularly like the Settings backup/restore system which means you can install a new version in a couple of minutes flat.
