Have you tried a hard reset on the device? Hold Power and Home until you see the Apple logo... then try it again...

chalk it up to a beta mishap i guess..

might as well update your iTunes and restore to beta 4, the "old fashioned way"

Agreed. If OTA aint doing it for you, you have to go where it will work... iTunes update and download the .ipsw file...

Same thing happening to me. Most of the time it doesn't even get that far, it just shows the gears and a black progress bar, no text on the page.
