I find personally that tracking the round number is a pain. Having to remember that a monster in round 2 has an effect that lasts till round 4 is a major pain for me. OTOH, the binary nature of 4e statuses (recharged or not, on fire or not, etc) is a bit easier to track.
Especially with how long a single round could be in 3e, because of iterative attacks, cohorts, and the like, you could easily forget when the breath recharges because you're spending 20 minutes on each round.
