While I agree that Unity is the right step for Canonical to take with regards to Ubuntu, my main gripe is that they've taken away the old GNOME UI and has left us with no (easy) way to bring it back. This was my experience as of 11.04.
The old Gnome UI was about 2 clicks away on the login screen in 11.04 (unless you didn't have a password on your account, for some reason).
In 11.10, you can manually install gnome, and then you get gnome 3, which is certainly not what you wanted (and not necessarily an improvement over unity).
