Apple's latest 10.6.2 beta packs fixes for VMWare, iMacs, Apple TV
Those familiar with the build, titled 10C540 have said that it contains fixes for AirPort performance issues on the newly released iMacs and also resolves a problem which arose when plugging and unplugging a system to an Apple TV. A VMWare fix is also included, presumably for the newly released Fusion version 3.0.
The new build also fixes reported panic issues with USB, Apple Filing Protocol, and some video cards.
In the 10.6.2 update, Apple plans on fixing and tweaking nearly 150 OS X components.
Some components slated for fixes include: AppleBacklight, Battery Menu, Dictionary, Expose, FileSync, Family Controls, Fonts, Front Row, HFS, Inkwell, iPhoto, MobileMe, OpenCL, Parental Controls, QuickTime, Screen Sharing, Spell Checker, Spotlight, Time Machine, and USB.
Mac OS X 10.6.2 is expected to be released sometime in November and will reportedly be around 480 MB in size.

Look like they're leaving no stone uncovered here. Taking their time and getting it all right.
always beta, apple just lets snow leopard run around with dozens of bugs : )
A new beta means the release is pushed at least a week later. I thought that I could have seen it this week!
So it seems I have to install that magic mouse software, reluctantly.

Did someone threaten you with severe consequences if you did not upgrade?
Stop complaining over silly things.

The fact that I haven't got the upgrade more or less threatens me : )
I'm stunned! I was told last week that there weren't any problems with SL. Amazing, there ARE actually problems with the OS that could effect how computers operate.
