In case you've not seen it on WP Central:

Amber – Lumia only update

Double tap to wake
Glance setting – Lockscreen clock feature
Flip to silence
New wallpapers (grab them here on SkyDrive)
Smart Camera app
Ability to set color profile for your screen

GDR2 – Windows Phone OS update

IBN Notes Traveler and Sina Weibo (China only) account integration
FM radio
More carriers with DataSense support
CalDAV and CardDav support

Why can't MS just fix the basic stufff ... I still can't get my business POP3 email to work correctly (my private POP3 email works correctly, but does not allow me to sync less than three days), sound volumes should be seperated for ring tones, alarms and games, add third-party calendar support to the API, allow the ability to select all emails with one click, etc, etc.

I love my 920, but really MS, this is basic stuff. This is what seperates WP8 from the more mature and stable competitors. When people ask me about WP8, I tell them that although I love it, it is still immature compared to iOS and Android.
 
Oooh nice... Double tap to wake :D one of the more awesome N9 features that didnt come to Lumia.
Radio :D
Liking all those features... except I don't really care bout a wallpaper lol.

Also I agree with the sound volumes that should be separate. Also I have no issues with mail when I used it...

Also like you said, the other OS's is mature, WP still needs to grow and I think they are doing great so far tbh.
Needs a date on this update, hope they don't skip anything for my 820
 
Great news for the Lumia 920 owners, the amber update started rolling out for vodacom today, if you check your updates you should be able to go ahead and upgrade... Enjoy! ;)
