From what I can tell, I think the changes are slight. This is what I see so far:

 

- new "downloads" app

- new "running" tab under manage applications

- some menus etc.. seem smaller

- options on menu when you power down are different (new restart option)

Additional changes I saw in Gingerbread:

 

1 SIP (Internet calling) Account support. Settings > Call > Internet Calling

I tried putting in a free SIP account from a 3rd party VoIP provider and it didn't work.

 

2 In Update 4.06.605.2 and 4.06.605.3 there was a Bluetooth Internetnet Sharing Toggle added:

Settings > Wireless Networks > Connection Type (for Internet Sharing Mode) USB/Bluetooth 

I tried it with the Blutoooth radio on my laptop and 3 others, and never could get it to work, getting Error 692 Modem errors.

With the 4.08.605.2 (current) update, that option has been removed.
