Has anyone shown the lockscreen music controls yet? Or Podcast controls etc. I use these frequently, if anyone could do a test, that'd be great! Thank you

Heh, so I jumped to conclusions. Sorry.
@Greyface, you're misquoting me a couple of times ;p
I think you just click the serial number to change it to the UDID from memory.

Click on the serial number, should change to the UDID.
There are also some apps that can give you your UDID (couldn't find it in the settings menu where it should be).
ActMonitor is one of them.
edit: late, sorry

Whats about the 4S?
For those who tried installing ios7 without verifying their UDID was set in the developer portal, like me, you can get your UDID from system profiler > USB > iPhone. It's the serial number. I thought I bricked my phone for a second because I didn't think I had a way to access my UDID without iTunes.
Been running it since last night. It's... Inconsistent. The control center is downright ugly and I hate some of the new icons. The new animations and parallaxed backgrounds are really cool and definitely an improvement. But the overall look of this is really dissapointing to me. Safari is a nice improvement though. The icons on the bottom look dumb, but I love how the whole interface pretty much disappears once you start scrolling.

New iPhone Prank: Take someone's wallpaper and make a panoramic version of it with porn on the extremes so when they hold their phone at an angle they either get fired, laughed at or publicy shamed.
Would be....hilarious!

I was messing with the Safari icon and came up with this. The one posted earlier was way too complicated once you drop it in the OS with the rest of 'em. ps thanks for the screen cap pizza luigi ;p
Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but how do I airdrop anything from iRadio? I can't seem to find a share button anywhere in the radio section.
Time to embed the panorama meta tag in regular photos (I'm assuming this is what it picks up that allows for the extra scrolling)!

Something that bugs me about the icons is how the gradient direction isn't consistent. Sometimes it's brighter at the top, other times the bottom. (For example mail/messages vs phone/videos.
I don't think this is new, but perhaps it's just more obvious now that the icons are simplified. Can't unsee the inconsistency :/.
Anyways... I'll be curious to see if this design gets tweaked before launch. Probably will change... I mean, look at the original osx compared to what it is now.

Looks so much better
Huh. that's way more extreme than I thought they'd go.
I think I prefer the subtle perspective shifting when rotating the phone than something really active like this. does this work with icons on the screen, too? seems like it would be super distracting.
How does that work on the homescreen?

This seems like one of those things that 99.9999% of people wouldn't even try, and the people that DO try, will know what they are getting into if they do it.
All standard resolution wallpapers act extremely subtly. Most people would likely need to be told it's happening to even notice it.
Maybe this is just a very self-aware post by Gruber that he just doesn't know how to defend his position vs. a snarky dismissal of opinion?
...maybe?

I guarantee if Google came up with a UI like this, he'd be reaming them.

Loving iOS 7 at the moment, really liking the look and feel of it. The search bar you can make appear I haven't seem to get working yet, it doesn't seem to search a thing - other than that, all good

First day with iOS7 I really didn't like it. Especially the icons. But now that it's been a little longer I've found little things in the OS that I really, really do like.
+ Snoozing calendar alerts. Though for some reason this is only from the lock screen and you can't snooze to start time. So usually I have 15 minutes before alerts on all my appointments, and the snooze is for 9-10 mins just like the alarm. So If I snooze twice the next time it'll alert me is 5 minutes after a meeting's started. Not helpful.
+ Marking callers as spammers, never to ring or bother you again (awesome).
+ Control Center on the lock screen. It's a little cluttered and I could do without the brightness, rotation lock or flashlight buttons on here.
+ I like the agenda view on the lock screen. "Your next meeting is at blah blah blah" and "The temperature is __, with a high of __." Very Google Now, and I like it. Throw my commute to work in there and we have an awesome feature.
+ App Store updates apps automatically, then tells you which ones it did.
+ Going back a page in Safari by swiping from the screen edge. Love that.
+ New folder setup (though 3x3 is a bit low - I'd prefer 3x4 per page in folders).
+ Swipe down for spotlight. Much better than the previous implementation.
+ Multitasking. I like the live page previews.
+ Being able to mark mail as Spam without clicking on the message.
And some cons:
- Safari, Settings, Photos and Camera icons. Those are the WORST. They look terrible.
- Game Center. I didn't like the look of it before but this is not an improvement. Also, the icon. Bleh.
- Clearing notifications from the lock screen is still a mess. Maybe even worse now that you have tabs for "All" and "Missed". Missed doesn't seem to go away.
- Folder organization. If I delete an app in a folder, the apps in the subsequent pages inside the folder don't slide over to take up the empty space. I have to manually move everything over. Happened to me when I placed a bunch of games into a folder then deleted a half-dozen on different pages.
- The weight of the font on the time/date on the lock screen make it hard to read if you have a bright/white image as your background.
- The for cell signal strength are a lot larger than just the bars. I kinda get why they did it, but I don't like the change.
- The alarm clock icon changed slightly to have "bells" at the top instead of just the clock face icon. Not a fan, particularly.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
Really do hope they let you clear notification center items with swipes eventually. Hitting that little x in the corner sucks for me for some reason.
It's live in the iOS 7 beta, so minimally they'd need to have had all their deals cut by then regardless.
I'm using it at least...
I still can't figure out how to get to it. I saw it once but I can't remember where.
I think the worst part is that it dims whatever behind it so it looks awkwardly bright, like there's more "light" coming through the frosted glass than there should be.
Can't get the panorama to work on the lock screen with a panorama I just took, any tricks?
Also, that Notification Center bounce is killing me, WHY?!

In the music app, there's an iTunes Radio button on the bottom left to get you in there.
It's in the Music app. I don't have my songs on my phone, but I can listen to the iTunes radio there.
weird, I thought that's where I saw it. I synced some music and the option is gone now. Maybe its because I'm in Canada.
ah, yeah: http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/features/ "iTunes Radio is available only in the U.S."
