I have been jailbroken in the past but not on 5.0.1 yet. I have seen where a bunch of people are having issues with their iPhones with this Jailbreak. I have a iPhone 4 running 5.0.1 with a modem firmware of 04.11.08.

Any reason I should wait?

IF this has been asked before, I apologize for another post of it's kind. I searched but I couldn't find anything specific.

Download redsn0w, hook up your phone and go to town. Takes about a minute and you are good to go. My phone is on the same firmware as you. No issues.
 
No major issues on 5.01, mostly people upgrade to 5.01 and install all there old apps, some of which are not 5.01 compatible. That might cause some problems.

The jailbreak and untether are very stable.
