I've gone from a 3Gs to a 4, both running IOS5, backing to a PC. The short answer is - partially. Apps are going into folders better now than when I updated a 3Gs to a 3GS with a larger memory. But some apps failed to restore, including an extremely useful one that would scan for all available wireless networks. Others didn't restore either, or restored old versions (inexplicably, I had backed up the current version). Other apps didn't show up in folders at all. New icons of dubious use showed up like Newstand, disrupting other things. My itunes library holds way more material that will fit on the phone, so I do manual backups. The restore wanted to put it ALL on my phone even though I had it set to manual sync.
Pretty seamless process considering the horrible 5 hour ordeal last time when I lost folder associations. Apple is getting better at this upgrade process. But deleting apps they don't like - like the wireless network sniffer - very bad. It was about 45 minutes of moving things around instead of 5 hours. But don't expect it to be perfect.
