According to the release notes, there should be a Mavericks (10.9) beta 3 today, as well. There is a reference to iCloud Keychain in iOS 7b3 not being backward compatible with iOS 7b2 or OS X Mavericks b2.

This comment is followed by a reference to the OS X Mavericks release notes...

... because of traffic demands - everyone is doing the OTA update... be patient... it took me about 15 minutes from clicking on the software update link until it rebooted, post install.

Initial notices...

Font & UI on Notification Center tweaked... font on passcode screen tweaked... I think they made all the base fonts a bit 'thicker'...

edit to add... disappearing wallpaper bug still there for me...

Yeah, took a while for me too. Patience is a must but it is installing now.
