The iPhone 3G update to iOS 4? I hear it's almost working acceptably now after three minor updates.

It's still slow, almost unusable sometimes and iOS 4.3 won't come for 3G, so I guess we have to live with that.

First time I hear of that. No problems on my third generation iPod touch.

Some of the 3rd Generation touches had the same processor power as the 3GS, some didn't and, as I recall, had the same issues as the 3G. I'm surprised you didn't hear about this, it was very big news at the time since the original update rendered many phones near to bricks.
