yeah mine kicked off and the time bounced around (ipad 3) OTA then it failed after 20 minutes - it fails almost every time after 1 minute or so...
 
This is getting amusing... The progress bar on the phone and ipad are about the same... the iPad says 2 more hours, the iPhone says 2 more minutes
 
stuck on preparing update....does it take long...it's been like 5 minutes, just stuck at the ebd witha little more to go. I am just on wi-fi.

same here. this update is pushing 1 hour total for me after 2 error messages. 3rd time got me to preparing update but now just waiting for the last bit of it to finish which hasn't moved in nearly 10 minutes.
 
Started trying the update at 1:01 and got nothing until about 1:08 pm here in Asheville. I was not in a reliable cell signal area so I waited until I got back to the office, hit Download and Install at approximately 1:15 and it's still Preparing Update..... There is only a tiny bit left to update but it's been saying Preparing Update for almost a half hour now so I'm a little worried.
 
Mine stayed on "Preparing update" for about 25 minutes. Now it's finally actually installing. About 60% done.
 
Downloading iTunes 10.7 now, and then doing restore and update to 6 with my 4S.

I would do OTA, but I am jailbroken.

Is iOS6 worth losing the jailbreak? I haven't updated yet, so I still have time to change my mind lol.
 
My Ipad updated through itunes, but now the ipad is just sitting there with the apple and the progress bar on screen not showing any movement. According to itunes the update is finished.
 
My iTunes keeps bombing out trying to validate the extraction for the ip4. Ipad went through no problem.

iPhone 4S done updating... I don't like the way Siri's voice was changed. She sounds more computer than she used to.

iPad 3 still upgrading...
 
Updated via iPhone over WiFi with no problems.
Started 1:20 - Finished 1:50 4s is now running iSO6...
 
Both iPad & iPhone are now done for me. No error's or glitches unlike when I updated to version 5. So I'll have to say good job Apple.
 
Downloaded and installed on 4s via OTA/WiFi. Download took about 20 min. Preparing Update and Install took about 50 min.

Southeastern WI.
