You'll dig the upgrade (double home button is cool). Unless you plan on hacking your phone, then you're on your own
Check out www.modmyiphone.com
If you want AppTapp Installer, which installs third party apps onto your iphone... it does this right through your iphone. Or if you want ringtones or other mods don't upgrade to 1.1.1!
I upgraded because, personally, I liked the little additions. I enjoy double-pressing the home button shortcut... this works for 3 things. If you're listening to music and your phone is locked, double tap the home button and play controls pop up. 2, if you're not listening to music and you double tap it either can bring your favorites list up or you ipod controls... the third way is if you have the double tap set to favorites, then you can choose it so when you're playing music and double tap, it brings up an ipod menu.
They also added a nice function... if you're typing something and u double tap the space bar it automatically adds a period and a space after the period. All of these features were more valuable to me. 1.1.1. one-click jailbreaks should be out soon enough anyways
Congrats on your iPhone!
Yes...do yourself a favor and download the newest iPhone software! But DO NOT hack your iPhone, it will cause nothing but problems. I don't know why anyone does this. Apple made it perfectly the way it is

Just enjoy your iPhone for all it is!

This has to be sound advice. After all, it won't be that long before the SDK is available with all the goodies that will herald.
I would heed the advice of what others are saying in this thread. Taking the road of hacking or modding your iPhone is a long, trying!, and lonely road.

Apple says it raises the ear piece volume...still not enough imo but better than nothing, right?

People do this so that they can use the iphone in countries other than the US and so they don't necessarily have to subscribe to a 3 year data/ voice plan with AT&T.
