Another Round Of PageRank Slapping?

On October 26th, Google started it's famous PageRank update. At that time, this blog received a PR5. I was happy(ego ;) ) about it until today. While I was working on 1 Cool File detail page, I noticed that my PageRank was lower. It's now a PR3.

I checked with 5 PageRank checker and they all confirmed my dropped in PR. The strange thing is my original blog URL is still PR5. Could it be some delay because I did a 301 redirect and will be back to PR5 later? Is it another round of PR slapping? Is it normal and be set later until the next official update?

I know that some of you will buy a site based on the new PageRank. It may not be the only factor you will look at unless you want it mostly for the PR. I would suggest that hold off to see if others are slapped again.

Did you get slapped since the update? (I mean like me)

P.S. My other sites/blogs did not move.
