UPDATE
This is an update from "ADigitalMan"
1) MagnoliaFan's original subtitles are still on the disc, on subtitle stream 2. Nothing has been "taken away" from his version.
2) You're right in that the dialogue changes are subtle. As a former editor (word, not video) I merely tried to punch up the dialogue a little by using more active voice and less passive voice. i.e. The characters are "doing" more, as opposed to "having things done." That said, there were a few key differences in my version of the dialogue. Namely:
3) Jar Jar still tries to be a tough-guy, but not to the point of being a jerk to everybody. Instead, he's trying desparately to fit in and make himself useful, in spite of his foibles and insecurities.
4) Jar Jar makes the point that he considers Nass to be weak-minded, underscoring the point that this leader of the Gungans was so easily affected by the mind trick. This bit at the beginning of the "bongo" scene changes the feel, as if we've come into the conversation a little late, where Qui-Gon might have been explaining how the mind-trick works. It becomes more of a counterplay with the scene in Luke's speeder in Ep IV.
5) Jar Jar intentionally set loose the wagon full of boomers on the tanks.
6) Nute Gunray never suspects Padme to be the queen, as he's never seen her face and she approached him still dressed like a handmaiden, not in the Queenly gear. This makes her plan that much stronger, as it allows her to get close to Gunray, then use the decoy queen to draw all of the battle droids away.
