What are your thoughts? I just bought an iPad 2 with iOS 4.3.5, and considering the upgrade as well. From a non jailbreak perspective, how's the new OS?

Notification center and iCloud can be very useful for some people. Aside from that are the smaller changes which IMO make things really convenient. Four finger swiping is used for several different uses. Quick switching between open apps, opening your open app center and etc. You can also 5 finger swipe inwards when you're in an app to go to the home screen. All of these mean you don't even need to hit the home button anymore. Fun stuff.

I think 5.0 is just overall more convenient.

Most of these can be achieved with cydia tweaks. Notifications is the only one that I would like to have.
