I haven't done the update yet. I usually just wait till others test it out first and scan to see if there are a lot of complaints. I haven't done it yet though cause every time I think about it, I'm not on wifi and I'd like to wait till I'm at home on wifi.

I haven't updated yet. A little hesitant after reading some peoples' volume during a call were barely audible. My phone is fine the way it is right now so I will pass on the update.

There is seriously no good reason not to do the update. I had no problems before and no problems after. I have noticed that my LTE doesn't ever come on now when I'm at home with wifi; prior to update, LTE would come on upon awakening iPhone and then would turn off soon thereafter. Now it sticks with wifi whenever in range. :)

If you want to JB, never update until given the all clear by the community.

Also, 6.0.1 makes Safari seem snappier! :D

6.0 could have a jailbreak exploit that is gone in 6.0.1. That is a good reason for me not to update at the moment.

There isn't even a jailbreak out yet, it's only for developers and it's called a failbreak, plus they failbroke the iPad Mini and the iPad 4 on 6.0.1 so it's fine just update

Okay, I forget about the JB factor since I don't participate. :)

To the OP: No need to fear that your luck will run out. All of my previous iPhones have been great; no problems whatsoever. Sometimes things are just all good. :)
