The icon wiggle for home screen re-order and re-paging is a nice touch, as are the jumping custom Google Maps pins, and the page roll-up for Google maps preferences. Apple really knows how to use classic animation effects not only to make UI's more comfortable and more fun, but to cover transitions and give some opt-out buffer. Very impressive. (Of course, the functionality looks great as well :) ).
