Will you upgrade to the latest version of iOS (7) come this fall?
I personally will upgrade my 64GB iPod touch 5 jailbroken on iOS 6.1.2 to iOS 7 the moment it comes out.

I use my LTE equipped iPad mini as my primary mobile device. I plan to keep using iOS 6 because I'm really enjoying it and have no need to change. I plan to sit back and read about others real world experiences with 7 and then decide after Apple works out the glitches.
 
I'll be going to iOS 7 the day its out.

Depending on what day it will be out, if its on Wednesday, I will most likely not upgrade til 6 PM or even 8 PM EST that day. I really hope its not on a Wednesday
 
I will always update to the latest software as soon as it is available. The minute iOS 7 goes live, I'll be one of the many flooding the download servers.
 
Running beta 6 on my iPad 4 and iPhone 5 as it's stable with everything I use then will DFU them and whack the GM on when it is released.
 
I'll likely downgrade since I don't see the incentive for app authors to completely re-write their UI and conform to new standards for free without repurchasing.
 
I'm going to hold off a few weeks to see if any annoying bugs turn up. I've had 0 bug issues with iOS 6 so I'm not willing to toss away this reliability just yet.
 
I'm upgrading ASAP. I need a fresh start on my phone, jailbreak is really starting to punish my good old 4... Hopefully iOS7 isn't too laggy on it and it can run in fine
 
voted iOS 7 w/ JB, but only if it gets as fast as iOS 6 used to be on my 4 - been using the betas for the past couple of months and downgraded to 6.1.3 today to save the SHSH blobs for late use. Now Im gonna wait for the final version and maybe try it out myself or just wait for others here to post their opinions of iOS 7 on the iphone 4.:)
 
Already running the beta on my Mini and I can't go back to iOS 6.
I might jailbreak in the future but only if something awesome comes, Apple already gave me what I wanted, new design, new multitasking, control center, airdrop.
 
I tried going back to iOS 6 three different times so far after installing the beta, and each time I almost instantly upgraded back to iOS 7.

I'm going to be constantly refreshing news sites to see when the GM hits so I can download it ASAP.
 
Yeah, itching to try it out but not desperate or silly enough to install a beta on my main phone!

Been on all the betas and definitely will upgrade Day One!

In the early betas, I had a couple apps that didn't work and some resprings but that was OK for me. Since beta 5 though, my iPhone 5 has had no issues with the 121 apps I have installed.

But if it's too much risk for you, then yeah, hold off!

It's not that it's too much risk, it's just that the stable version won't cost me anything and it'll be a fresh, new experience when I first get to try out the new version.
 
I will update my iPhone 5 to iOS 7 as soon as possible, but I will probably keep iOS 6 on my iPad 2, depending on what other iPad 2 users say about iOS 7's speed. iOS 6 already lags a bit on my iPad; I don't want it to get worse.
 
For me, iOS 7 without question. I can't see the point in not trying something new and moving with the times. If it is buggy and has flaws, well that is life. The more people using it, the quicker and easier problems will be to fix. iOS 7 all the way. :)
