The update brings with it what seems like new updates of almost all major apps in OSX, including new Mail, new Address Book (pictured, below), new iCal, the latest Safari (5.1) as well as a new finder and even an updated Text-Edit.

There also new features such as Launch Pad which, enables you to access all your apps that you have purchased through the App store quickly and easily (pictured, top).

It's looking like quite the update, and will apparently be out in summer 2011.
