As mentioned earlier, the only downside to iOS 5 that I can find is with the new Music App UI and that it's missing some features that the iPod App had. I'm pretty sure it will be tweaked to address those issues in future updates, and soon I hope!
It's certainly your call though.
The MUSIC app certainly looked strange at first, and I miss coverflow, but on the whole, I'm satisfied with it. I've grown accustomed to the minimalist interface, and Home Sharing seems less flaky than it was under iOS4, for me at least.
It may be my imagination, but battery life seems to have improved on both of my iDevices.
I don't use Numbers, but Pages is enhanced dramatically under iOS5. Now that the two devices are synced I use the iPad with BT keyboard for major typing tasks, and the iPhone for minor corrections. This feature alone makes the upgrade worthwhile.
