  Agreed. All my dev books are focused on XCode 3 and there are only a couple of XCode 4 books that have been printed. Which is disappointing because now my old books are useless and I spend most of my time replaying the Apple XCode 4 videos to figure out how to do certain things.

  iOS developer here. 3.0->4.0 is the biggest jump in product history. 4.1 is just a bugfix / Lion support / couple of new widgets release. It doesn't appear (warning: no release notes yet) that 4.1 runs on SL or that 4.0 runs on Lion, so run the version appropriate to your OS.

  I agree with your hesitation if you've done zero xcode 3 development. I just completed my first xcode 4 based project last night, and the instructions on Apple's site (for binary signing, and the like) have yet to be updated for xcode 4 - since the process is already complicated enough, had I not done it before with xcode 3 I would have been completely out to lunch. With that said, if you're comfortable with xcode 3, you shouldn't have a problem switching to xcode 4.
