RAW improvements with Lightroom 3 beta?

Pavel at Misfiring Neurons has posted a very interesting comparison of LR3-Beta vs LR 2.5 when it comes to processing RAW files from a variety of popular cameras. Crops of each comparison-set (LR 3 vs LR 2.5) are shown, and they include the Canon 50D, G10, Nikon D90, D700, and Pentax K7, K10D.
