Swiping right to left on a Gmail message in the inbox will give you a button saying "Archive".
Doing the same on Mobile Me results in "Delete" buttons. Why is this?

I was at that exact stage for more than an hour and a half. Just now it quickly finished.
Mine is the same. Taking forever and the progress bar has moved very little. Don't know if I should stop and start over or not.
Blurry photos...
Nice smooth download and install, the whole thing took under 30 mins. Phone actually seems a bit faster (smoother), however all my photos (except ones taken with iphone camera) are all blurry. Anyone else get this??

So my first impressions.
iOS4 on the 3GS is pretty darn fast, I was expecting a bit of slowdown but it seems to have plenty power to keep up with the iOS4. I agree with some others, it seems to be just a lot of eye candy, which don't get me wrong, I find very nummy. I like how the dock now looks like Mac OSX ish, which makes me think they are going to try and make it look more and more like that in future iterations.
The only problems I am having so far is with Apps, I tried pandora, the old one not the new one, and it doesn't seem to want to run, neither do a few other apps that stream like the TWIT app, also I am having a hard time getting into the App store, maybe its just the amount of people. When I do get in however I notice some apps have a little "+" in the corner of the "Free" button, which I assume means 4.0 safe.
The camera has a zoom funtion which I tried out and it moves smooth and still supports tap to focus in zoom mode which is nice. I like the splitting menu when you open folders and explore in the multitask bar. Its a bit bittersweet in my opinion I have only had the update for a hour and a half and I see about 10 items in multitasking. I also foresee a long road of updates because I don't think many apps support multitasking. I tried it out on Angry Birds and when I went back to the app from mid-game it just restarted the app. Dissapointing. It still is a step up from the 3.1.3 and I am sure has lots of features to be discovered. I can't wait to deal with it in all its glory on the iPhone 4!

That sounds good. Did you have tethering enabled before?
I'm still on 3.01 because I really appreciate my occasional tether, albeit at very slow speeds.
I'm happy for O2 to cap the data as long as tethering is thrown in for free.
Yeah I'm getting the exact same problem...been backing up for 1hr and 30minutes now and sitting at about 5%!

This is great and all but as someone who has had iOS 4 now since beta 1, I can tell you that you'll all be somewhat disappointed with multitasking because the applications have to update before they can take advantage. Pandora is working now but all of my games have NOT been working and neither my IM clients have been working in multitasking mode. I guess I was hoping other App developers would have had there applications updated to work with the new Quick Save feature and other things but I was wrong.
We will just have to wAiT 🙂

Sure, go ahead and load iOS 4 on it. I really don't care if you can't sell it since it's not my phone...
what i get when i try to download iBooks:
I have the same problem. I'm just hitting try again every 20 seconds now.
Is there a way to shut off certain apps from being in the "Multi-Task Bar" seriously hate having to delete a bunch of apps out of there
This happened to me with 3.1.3 Three calls to Apple, no fix. Resorted to AppleCare sending me a new phone. Good Luck!
I downloaded the leaked version of iOS4 a week or so ago on my aged 3G. I didn't notice any performance decrease beyond what has already been there since 3.0. If anything, typing for SMS and email seemed less "sluggish" than it has been for me for a while. The consolidated email and message grouping is nice... Not too many other features to take advantage of on a 3G for me though.
literally seconds after I said this, the progress bar shot off and is traveling about 5% every 5 seconds so now I'm nearly done. Whew...1.5 hours of backing up sucked

so I guess this means we could actually just go ahead and upgrade normally via iTunes since the jailbreak/unlock is around the corner anyway? Very tempted, damn.... ^^
with the amount of complaints about battery/memory leak, are you guys restoring from a new phone or a backup? im running the GM and my memory and battery works great but i restore as a new phone. my battery life is actually better than my jb 3.1.2. im on a 3gs.
