In my admittedly sporadic testing over the past few days, I’ve not noticed much better battery life with the 2.1 update than before. Starting with a full battery, in a few hours of web/email usage under 3G I am down to 50% battery, and am easily able to get it to 20% with more usage throughout the day. I’m not impressed.
Adding insult to injury, two web applications that I wrote that feature the HTML "Meta Refresh" tag no longer work in Safari — but they did PRE-2.1.
<META HTTP-EQUIV=’Refresh’ CONTENT=’1 URL=/ ‘>
This tag should directed the browser to go to the page ("/" - the homepage, in this example) in the time specified (1, or 1 second in this example). This worked under 2.0 but does NOT under 2.1.
Anyone else seen anything noteworthy with their 2.1 upgrade?

I cannot tell if this is due to the change you described but Safari used to be able to open Appstore links. I mean I used to be able to read the rss feed of the latest additions to the app store in netnewswire and when I would click “open this in safari” it would bounce me to the app store, now safari tells me it doesnt know how to open this link
