The team at Adafruit have come up with a nice introduction on the Raspberry Pi Model B+ here: https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-the-raspberry-pi-model-b-plus-plus-differences-vs-model-b?view=all
 
Note: The latest Raspbian Wheezy version (20th June) may not work directly out of the box on the Raspberry Pi Model B+ as it requires an updated Kernel/firmware. During our tests, booting failed multiple times and then later booted up.
If you are a newbie, or don't already have the older Model B, we'd recommend you purchase a pre-installed Micro SD card that's been upgraded with the latest firmware/kernel and tested on the Raspberry Pi Model B+.
