nogo, I am having the exact same problem... took it to a shop and they say that I need a new transmission... is this what you had to do to fix it??
 
Reply would be very much appreciated as I have to decide whether or not to go ahead with the replacement
 
thank you

my 98 suburban shifts hard too when it kicks into gear after drives on the freeway, which is pretty similar to your situation, but doesn't shift like that 'round town driving. if you find out what it might be please let me know. my email: lindamoz3000yahoo.com also, my service engine soon light is on, so i'm not sure if that could be related. i'll get it checked out in a couple weeks.

Interesting ... I just got my 04 suburban back from the transmission shop today.
 
Reverse, 1st and 2nd gears worked. 3rd and 4th didn't work. Total mileage : 124K
At ~30mph it tries to shift into 3rd gear, you can see the RPMs increase, but there is no speed increase.
 
The problem was that 3rd/4th gears didn't have any friction material (worn down to the metal) and there is valve that wasn't working correctly (thus no 3rd or 4th gears). Had the transmission rebuilt and it now shifts smoothly.
 
Cost ~2K.

My 98 burb is doing the same thing now. What did you have to have done? I just had it towed to the transmission shop and am waiting to hear what they say. THanks for your info!

all i did was change out the tranny fluid and filter and it runs ok
but i also think a new torque converter will fix it for good
