After couple of days with Jelly Bean, I made small update to original article. If you didn't read it already, go to the original article; if you did, here is the update. In day-to-day use I found some parts that I am not happy with, but nevertheless I am happy with the upgrade.
First issue is with "Avoid nearby Wi-Fi networks with poor connections" feature. If you have a borderline case of poor signal, it switches to Wi-Fi and then doesn't work. Hopefully Google will fine-tune switching algorithm with next update.
If you like to play with multiple applications of the same kind, most irritating change in Jelly Bean for you will be the new "Complete action using" dialog. Earlier you just had to click on application for one-off or you could select "Use as default" and then click, making it default. Now, in both cases, you select application first and then choose between "Always" and "Just once". It always involve two clicks. What's worst, until you get used to it, you will click on the icon and stare wondering why nothing happened.
Offline voice recognition, which is now standard part of Jelly Bean, is missing on Nexus S. Here Google went Apple's way by providing slightly crippled version of operating system for the old device. This also happened in Ice Cream Sandwich with camera application. Voice search activation by saying "Google" is also missing.
