It's not compatible otherwise it would have been added to the official repos. If you want Gnome3 I suggest you clean install Oneiric (or even Precise which is LTS).

There is a 3rd party PPA but it will more than likely cause a TONNE of issues:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-desktop/gnome3-builds
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop3
