The official Tethering (in countries where it was allowed since 3.0) it still works, it's still listed on the Apple page and I write this being tethered.
Don't know about jailbroken phones though.
Just installed it
I've just installed both the iPod Touch 3.1.1 update (from 3.0) Didn't see anything particularly special yet. BUt iTunes 9 looks sweet and the App navigator is awesome.

Thank you for the info. I am about to leave work for the day and update iTunes and my phone, but I was not to keen about lowering my receiver's volume.
"Remotely lock iPhone with a passcode via MobileMe"
Thats nice. so If you lose your phone but didn't have it passcoded you can push that down and then no one will be able to get into it.
Also I d/l iTunes 9 and its nice. Home sharing is neutered enough where music companies wont get up in arms. Though I can see app developers crying about sharing apps between computers (buying a GPS nav system once and then putting it on many phones).
However I cant seem to get Genius mixes to show up, I get Genius but not Mixes.

Does 3.1 include a fix for camera roll bug?
Does 3.1 include a permanent fix for the camera roll bug?

Bluetooth A2DP
Well, I've got 3.1 installed on iPhone 3Gs No evidence at all that control with Bluetooth stereo head phone is any different than before the update. Only play and pause on my Sony and no control whatsoever on the Jabra Halo -- just as before with 3.0. Nuts!

I think that since the upgrades force a restart of the phone, any residual memory leaks or runaway processes are restarted as well. This would lead to better battery life and snappier overall performance. People notice this each time and attribute it to the new OS, when it is most likely just because they needed to restart their iPhone.

You're very welcome.
So let me get this straight. I paid 10.00 to upgrade from my 2.2.1 OS to the 3.0 OS and I could have waited literally two days and only paid 5.00 to upgrade from 2.2.1 to 3.1? That's BS!
But I intended on Jailbreaking so the point is moot, but it sucks for those who just barely upgraded/bought new iPod Touch's and did the 10 upgrade when they could have gotten it for 5.

You can already do that, as long as they all sync with the same iTunes account logon. It's not clear (to me anyway) if that restriction exists with the home sharing, but I imagine so -- maybe not though.
I would really like to know why it still takes me over an hour to backup my iPhone 3G when I go to update the software. Not that it's a huge deal as it works fine, it just takes forever. Was hoping iTunes 9 was going to fix this (maybe iPhone OS 3.1 will maybe?)
Yep, you're supposed to get iTunes 9 first, then sync and update the phone's OS.
There's a little "Learn How" thing in the top right corner of the main frame that tells you the steps:

When they released 3.0, it took a very long time the first time you synced; after that it seemed to only do delta updates so syncing went much faster. I suspect it is the same this time.
