After two days of trying to use OS 4 on my iPhone 3G I'm sad to report that it's a very un-Apple like release. It's slower, it breaks a bunch of games and doesn't offer any compelling features. I'd go as far as to say they should probably have only released it for the iPhone 3GS.

Which games are you having problems with? I don't have many, and haven't tried any of them yet, but I know that e.g. Plants vs Zombies was updated to be compatible. I also haven't noticed it *slower*, for me it feels faster than 3.1.3 was.

The text messages take forever to load. Webkit windows embedded in apps are almost unusable. Robot Unicorn Attack broke, as did Fruit Ninja. I've heard the camera is worse but hadn't tried it myself.
