Well, you probably wouldn't want it to run specific ios5 apps anyway, might be too low in performance. I mean ios4 on the 3G is already pushing it. It was really only smooth on 3.

Coz I don't know where are the apps available to install on 4.2 such as Facebook, Foursquare etc..
If there is no app then 4.2 is just like normail phone..

As stated, the phone isn't capable of running most newer apps.
If you expect to run current apps, you have to have a current iDevice.

As a comparison, you can't play DVD's using a VCR.

Are u saying Faceboook and Foursqure is not showing up in the app store?

As the app versions upgrade, minimum requirements rise, thus you shouldn't be able to install the latest FB app, however you should be able to install the latest version compatible with 4.2.1.
