Are you on Beta 5 or the GM?

I want to downgrade to 2.2.1 then upgrade again to 3.0 from the official apple release through iTunes. However, I don't want to encounter any errors when downgrading. I'm having some slight problems with the 3.0 GM version.

I found this link, but want to know if it's something I should follow or not?

I would just do a restore in iTunes, it will be a clean install of the firmware. The restore your most recent backup. The GM version is the final release, we just got it early.

That's the problem. Last time I tried to sync it gave me problems and f***ed up my phone. I now have icons that are associated with other apps that shouldn't be. I want to download the release through iTunes but says I have the most current version. Someone said it should download regardless.

Hmm, you have to restore as a new phone to get it to download in iTunes if you are on the GM or anything else. Try the thread you posted about downgrading, I did it once before and it does work. Then you should be able to just update and install 3.0

I think I'm on the beta 5...

You can probably get the 3.0 firmware via torrent or some other means by now. If you are having problems and are stuck on the Beta, then go that route, and just Shift Click update.

MMS will come later this summer, but apparently now I'm hearing this Friday when the 3Gs comes out. Tethering is not supported in the U.S. currently and will become available at one point or another in the near future.
