I was able to downgrade iOS 5 beta 3 to 4.3.4 using the instructions found here How to downgrade iOS 5 Beta 3 back to current firmware version

As far as 4.3.3 you will need your SHSH blobs.

jsntrenkler, have you tried restoring simply using shift/option+restore? Or is using a pwned dfu mode the only method for a downgrade now? Thanks

pwned dfu mode is the ONLY way to do it right now. In fact first time it gave me a error and then I just hit the restore button again in iTunes and I was good to go.

Not likely... I don't expect GM release until at least mid to late August.
