Did anyone else save up their upgrades in KOTOR until they were a Jedi, just to be more powerful and get more powers?

You mean character levels? I did once, but it actually made me a little bit weaker for most of the game. See, I always get to Dantooine at level 8 and then get the free level when I multiclass to Jedi, putting me at 9. The time I decided not to level-up from 2 (the mandatory level-up on the Endar Spire), I only ended up at level 8 because there was no need to give me the freebie. For the rest of the game I was always 1 level behind where I would usually be.

Perhaps, but you have an extra 6 Jedi levels, which are generally better than soldier/scout/scoundrel levels.

Although KOTOR was my first RPG ever, I found it easier than KOTOR2. I remember getting myself stuck on Nar Shadaa because I couldn't kill all the Trandoshans that infested the Ebon Hawk. Don't know what's wrong with me.
Also Influence sucked ass.

I'm waiting for this thread to complete its devolution into a KotOR I > KotOR II thread.
IMO, KotOR II was a better game because I enjoyed everyone's story and the dialogue and philosophy involved.
As for more difficult, however...the Exile was like a Jedi God, so everyone but Kreia was pretty easy for him/her to beat.
KotOR I was a bit more difficult since Revan didn't seem quite so strong.

I would have to go with Kotor as being harder especially the end levels on the Star Forge, the level where you can get Revens/StarForge robes, the enemys seemed to never stop.
I also remember fighting the droids for ages until I realsed I could target the computers to shut them off/ destroy them. 
Malak was a harder fight than Kreia for me, but some of the Jedi on Kotor2 were tough, the one on Dantooine if you went there first was one of the hardest fights in the game.
I remember lots of running behind plants, setting up mines, repeat, the first time I beat him

I found KOTOR harder, especially some of the boss battles!

KOTOR was definitely the better game and was tougher. I have played it through now about 7 times completing on both light and darksides, and it is always a challenge. Taris (though I don't like having my lightsaber) is always difficult especially if you save you levels until you become a jedi (a level 7/8 jedi just out of training is great for the rest of the game). Even if you level up each time the side quests are far more difficult than KOTOR2.
The most difficult part of KOTOR2 is Dantooine if you play darkside and have to face Vrook. He is a real pain to beat if you go there straight after Telos. Pazaak is easier in KOTOR2, the swoop races are easier, the side quests are alright, and the bosses are much easier on 2 and the ending is absolute rubbish!
still waiting on 3 and hoping it'll be better than 2.

KOTOR was harder because (a)it was the first time I've played an RPG and (b)Malak was a ***** to beat.

KotOR 1 was definitely harder. I breezed through most of KotOR 2 on my first try as a Sentinel/Weapons Masters (yes, very disorganized) and I still found the final boss to be not that much of a challenge.

I've been going back and playing KOTOR recently (just found the first Star Forge map on Dantooine). KOTOR is harder than KOTOR II. I can't even beat the Mandalorian boss and his thugs on Dantooine right now. I'm going to have to leave Dantooine and level up some more before I go back to deal with him. I'm also strapped for credits and gear too (I'm obviously playing light side). In KOTOR II, once you get going it's pretty easy. Even playing light side I had tons of credits to buy stuff (I'd have more crap in my inventory than I knew what to do with). Other than a couple boss battles KOTOR II was pretty easy. The 3 Sith in the tomb on Dxun were a bit of a pain because the Exile isn't in that fight and Kreia at the end because it takes forever to destroy the floating lightsabers.
Malak's not so hard if you destroy the capsules holding the Jedi first so Malak can't re-charge. The hardest part of the Star Forge was just getting TO Malak through the endless waves of lackeys. I like KOTOR II's inventory system better, more options for customization but the story was crap. It could have been great but there was waay too much cut content and the ending wasn't even an ending.

Generally, when I'm soldier class, I level up as much as I can before getting to be a Jedi Guardian. I do this to gain the extra feats. Also, as a guardian, I don't use force that much. If I'm playing as a Scout/Scoundrel, I'll go to level four, and not level up again until I become a Jedi.

Yeah really eh?! Kreia's telling you everything and the whole time I was just thinking "Wow, the developers decided to save a bit of money but just having the ending be a vague script.

I found KOTOR harder, but then again I started playing it like Diablo. Wasn't until well into the game I took advantage of the turn based system.

KOTOR 1 is indeed harder then number two because you had to many creatures and solve many puzzles in the quest to find the story of Malak and Reven and to decide towards the end to either kill of your strongest characters or finish the fight with but knowing me i just killed them off because im always on the dark side on the KOTOR's and cannot wait to see if number three is to be officalely announced
