No, it was really bizarre!

Thankfully they were all free apps and I just downloaded them again, so it was an inconvenience but not a tragedy. At first my browser was totally gone also, but it turned out that the connections somehow got all shut off during the update and I just had to turn them back on.

And for anyone who is upgrading and "forgets" to back up beforehand (or for some strange reason doesn't do it regularly)...it *does* prompt you to do so before the upgrade begins.

yeah, does sound bizzaro but glad you're fully recovered Suzi

Just finished mine. Worked great. I did lose some calendar entries, but nothing I couldn't get back.

just to let people know, when they go back through the set up wizard, no need to re-enter your email settings. it is already there, just click skip or not at this time

Successful update today. Took roughly 20 minutes after downloading the right file. Hopefully this fixes my problem with SMS messages staying on my home screen even after being read and deleted.
