Is it true, OTA, you do not need restoration, i.e., everything stays there? Apparantly, I am the only one went with USB PC Suite, I did endup doing a restoration, it was trouble free, it just took time, about 30 min somethings to re-install all 40 apps. Interesting though, during the re-installation, it asked 2 times that some apps are 'not good...' or 'troublesome...' or something like that, I just pressed continue. Apparantly if I took note on these 2 apps, I maybe able to do OTA next time. Oh well... no harm done, I just kind of feeling being left out after browsing this thread

The apps I ended up doing manually are

emelfm2
Garnet VM
DiskUsage

and have to redo my bootup video too.

Absolutely did for me. All my apps, shortcuts, setup, calandar, contacts and other customization like the flyby boot video - everything is still there exactly as before. Very smooth update.

NSU, I downloaded some extra devel -applications in the beginning. One reboot just after the NSU and I was only missing nokia messaging in Modest after restoring the back-up. All of the rest was fine.

A day later I had to reboot again, media not found, even applications (web) failing to start. No problems since.

Overall: OK.

OTA, in the bus.. with many devel apps.. (including my memory messy experiments with widgets)
.. at the end.. everything A.O.K.
ps: some desktop widgets were disabled but clicks and I was a go again!
ctrl+shift+o for portrait mode on the browser (which is wayy faster) rocks!
Also.. I may have noted a significant battery improvement!
(Yesterday I had 22 hours of battery life including many HDSPA/wifi/youtube sessions..)

I flashed mine with flasher. OTA wanted me to connect to PC Suite. As I don't use WindBlows, I flashed it the easy way.

Flash went smooth as silk, and don't have any issues... well.. the phone doesn't have any issues, can't really that that about myself though.

Yes, it was fast and painless. The key was I made sure to disable all non-Nokia repositories before starting. Maybe something that should be done by default, because if something's gonna break, it's better to break 3rd-party apps than it is to break the OS.

Updated OTA (twice now, as there's still only the 42-11 firmware downloadable for UK) without any issues.
