Ok, Thanks. That's exactly what I wanted to know.
It's possibly overkill, but better safe than sorry
Got a tip for us?

Much more to 7.1 than that.......much much more
Yeah, well I care more about protecting myself from hackers than split view in calendar.
Ok. Honestly, compared to 7.1, 7.0.6 isn't too bad. Just the animations are a bit slower I guess.
I had some instability shortly after downgrading to 7.0.6 on my iPhone 5s, but after a restart and resetting network settings it's fine. It is slower, and the HDR bug is still present in 7.0.6. I miss the speed of 7.1. Considering this security hole has been present since iOS 6, it didn't feel all that urgent go to 7.0.6. But I did it anyway.
And even much more than that if you can believe it
Not really. I've been using it for a few months now. Just minor refinements and slight aesthetic changes.
And at lest a good amount of under the hood improvements to improve overall stability and performance.
They said 'much much more'. There was no mention of new features. 7.1 is a huge improvement.
For me it just lost the state as "Rock solid"
I have an app that crushes when I click on a certain button. After clicking the button the app closes around two seconds later.
Now I accidentally closed the app during the crash and something really odd happened.
I got back to the home screen, but a second later the app opened again, but with a freezer screen. I was able to open other apps with multitasking, but when I wanted to go back to the home screen, I just saw the broken app.
Sounds a bit complex, but check http://youtu.be/FyufjCbLsEs for the bug. Only a restart solved the problem.
(For the video clicking on "Mehr" makes the app crash.)
Does anyone have this problem with a different app?

Emmm it is beta and some 3rd party applications can conflict with new iOS because app still isn't updated....
I have had my first springboard crash on iOS7.1 today. The screen went briefly all blue and then white with the black apple logo (White iPhone 5S). After aeound 10-15 seconds everything went back to normal.
I care more about split Calendar view the entirety of tweaks available on Cydia.
And...it helps to actually understand a security vulnerability before ever commenting on one.
I am running 7.1 beta 5 on my iPad mini and iPad Air and I think both the iPad mini runs great. I had it on my iPhone 5s but downgraded to 7.0.6 after the exploit was announced.
IMHO, beta 5 is significantly smoother and more stable than 7.0.6. Since downgrading, my iPhone has experienced numerous resprings and random bugs. While on beta 5, I didn't have any.
Looking forward to the public release of 7.1.
It runs great on the iPad 2, especially for a 3 year old device. Like the OP said, rock solid.
7.1b5 for me has caused so many issues with iMessages that I had to disable it. So many folks could not receive or reply to my iMessage content. I hope it was because they were on an older (7.0.x) version.
