When will you upgrade to iOS 5?

Chronic Dev said at the Jailbreak Conference they had 5 user land exploits available already to launch when iPhone 5 comes out...so once they release that il update my IPad 2 but my iPhone 5 will come with it already!:D
 
Last year I stupidly stayed on 3.1.3 when 4.0 came out and by the time I updated 4.0.2 was released so I missed out on any sort of jailbreak for over two months. I won't be making that same mistake again.
 
If I decide to use it, I'll wait until after the public has used it for a month or so and reported the bugs. Then depending on Apples response and the time it takes them to fix it, I'll decide accordingly.

Since I've already decided to pass on iPhone 5, I may just pass altogether until iPhone 6. Currently I'm using my iP4 as my secondary phone, with my primary being my new Galaxy S II.

I'm very enthused as I follow the A6, and hybrid OS project that's at the center of Apples current engineering efforts. This is of far greater interest to me than iOS/iPhone 5.

While I'm sure there will be some improvements in iPhone 5, I believe that a year from now it may be viewed as the bridge to the far more significant and advanced A6 powered iPhone 6.
 
Definitely as soon as it is released! Looking forward to try out all the new features! ;)
 
Do you guys think the IOS5 will slow down the iphone 4 like the IOS4 did to the iphone 3S?

If so, I am not so sure if I will upgrade to a new OS.
 
As soon as i get my hands on an iOS device. = / I will probably actually never update to iOS 5 considering my next and first iOS device will hopefully be the iP5. That being said i do hope it turns out purrrty.

There is no thinking... Its not the case.

I don't think so. It is actually faster, IMO, especially Safari.
