    Then, had you in fact jail broken it and have now relocked it? 3G does not allow either of these options.

    No, it has never been available on the 3G without jailbreaking.

    you can try a 4.01 downgrade, apple are still signing the old firmware afaik, they were 10 hours ago...
    but you'll need to hurry
    so download a copy of 4.01 for 3g from here

    open itunes, press shift and restore, and hopefully it'll let you install

    good idea to backup first

    then you can jailbreak and get your little functions back !
