Does 5.1 work with the iPhone 3G?

I'm talking about the 2G iPhone 3G - does it? If so, does it run well on it?

The iPhone 3G hasn't had any updates since iOS 4.2.1!

Your options are going with 4.2.1, dropping to 3.1.3 (for best performance), or using something like whited00r, which supposedly adds some iOS 5 functionality to the iPhone 3G.

Or, update to an iPhone4 or 4S.
