Hold on to your seats - there is a Google PageRank Toolbar update happening right now!
Twitter is going wild about it and we have some threads at DigitalPoint Forums on the topic - of course.
The last PageRank Toolbar update we had was about 3 months ago in February. Before that was three months before February in November. See a pattern here?
In any event, ranking changes have no direct correlation to a new toolbar PageRank update. Google's PageRank numbers are constantly being updated internally and Google gives us a sampling of it from one point in time every few months or so, just to keep their *PR* wheels moving.
That being said, PageRank is a pride for many web sites and I do hope your PageRank increased so you can wear that badge with honor.

I own a couple sites that were all registered at the same time, all have had the same/similar work done to them 2 of them have had pr updates and are now pr 4 and my other one which had just as much work done to it is still a pr 0, does that mean anything?

I haven't seen any significant change in the PR on the front end (Toolbar). I think this in not a major update as people are discussing on DP.

Mine was a 3 I think before February, but it was hosted on a free domain. I purchased a domain (right after the update) and now it is a 2. All is good tho, there are some links that may need to be changed for mine. It is at least better to see a 2 now after a couple months of 0 - after purchasing the domain it went to 0!!

Last year, I put up a simple WordPress site for my cousin as a favor. I charged him nothing, did no SEO, did no link-building. A few weeks later, there was a PageRank update and suddenly it was a PR4. It literally had zero links pointing to it. Its PR has remained stagnant. My only guess is that the site inherited some of the juice of sites that were on its shared server. But it goes to show how meaningless PR is.

Two of my fairly new blogs les than 6 months old gained PR from 0 to 3 and from 0 to 4 and I'm kind of worried now :) I don't know what I've done to get there and if it's going to stay this way.

Just notice it today. A blog post I wrote on April 16th (http://bit.ly/JjV3dY) is PR3! Pretty nice :-) Other blog posts are now PR2. Why that one got PR3? Because it is a longer post (976 words). The rest of them are about 400 - 500 words long. I think Google now likes longer posts.

Hey Great. My few website gain Page Ranks... http://www.WebMediaMakers.com got upgrade in PR from 2 to 3 now :) http://www.SEOGuruDelhi.com got a fresh PR now from 0 to 1. Though i thought it would be 2 this time for this website. http://www.MxERP.com but this website PR is unbelievable, it got 2 PR from 0. Though there is no SEO work done on this website. Do google gives PR to normal websites as well? http://www.JobsEmpire.com This portal has already a page rank of 2 and we thought it would have atleast 4 this time, becauase of alot of work done by us. But surprised to see no update in this :) Same happened for http://www.MindCrackers.com which has already PR 2 and it should have 3 or 4 in this update, but nothing :( Hope google will update PR soon and will get all of us new Page Ranks. Anyways Cheers guys who got ranks and best of luck for next update who did not got PR this time :) Thanks
