New things include improvements to Cycles, AO and DOF in the Viewport compositor, improvements to hair dynamics and editing, support for custom normals and transferring of data layers between models, new proportional editing inverse-square type blending, and a few new things in the sculpting and painting areas too.

I like the custom normals things, and the AO and DOF realtime compositor features.  It reminds me of the realtime AO and DOF in 3dCoat, which I just love.  Not much improvement in the modelling area though, which is somewhat disappointing, but there's always next time.
