I'm looking forward to KDE 4 settling down. By "settling down" I mean
being that all applications are at feature-parity with their KDE 3.5
equivalents plus being as stable as the 3.5 line.
Though, as I've said before, I really like Phonon. It works in an easy
to understand, easy to use way *and* (more importantly) the way it works
is how I want it to work.
The SVG support in KDE4 is really nice, particularly for the games.
Note, though, that SVG support is old hat for GNOME. It was missing
functionality in KDE 3.5.

New or unfamiliar users like big flashy changes. These appear to be
clear reasons why X is better (or frequently just different) than Y.
Experienced users on the other hand, tend to be far less fond of big
radical changes -- particularly when the big changes do not clearly make
things better for the way they want to use the system.
