My iPad is currently updating by wifi  :thumb:, make sure you have at lease 50% battery life left because if you haven't you have to connect the device to a charger to complete the update.

I've done the 4S via WiFi on battery, you can tell how long it took

That was simple enough, iPad updated and working.

I'm not sure if I will do my iPhone 4 as since updating it to iOS 5 the battery life on it has been great I've even gone three days between charges, I don't want to tempt fate.

Just done mine fairly painlessly.  Only potential issue I can see is that it doesn't give you the option of a pre-upgrade backup.

And my iphone 4 is now done. That was painless and used 2% battery.

I read that elsewhere but glad it's not affecting either of my phones on IOS5

My battery certainly seems to last longer than on the 3GS.
