KDE 4 is being tested very heavily, there shouldn't be any real problems with its initial release, just as there weren't with KDE 3.0. I would advise using KDE 4 whenever your distribution makes it the default version. That said, the primary focus of the KDE 4.0 will be to establish the frameworks that will be around until 5.0, some of the nifty stuff that takes full advantage of those frameworks will come out later in the release cycle. As for 3.5.6, it's the stable branch, I'm running it right now in Debian and there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to stay with 3.5.5 if 3.5.6 is available. Attachment:
