Default Should I update to iOS 6?

I'm jailbroken. Honestly, I don't use any jailbreak feature as much as I thought I would, except perhaps iFile. Backgrounder, barrel, display recorder, Springtomize, activator and sbsettings are all I have installed, and by far I use ifile the most, maybe 3 times a week to back up game saves. I rarely use the rest, though barrel is a really neat tweak. Oh and folder enhancer. Really nice tweak that I love.

Should I update (and lose my jailbreak)? I would really like to try out Siri (iPad 3), look forward to the Facebook integration and I hear that iOS 6 is more optimized, especially for gaming. Maybe NOVA 3 retina won't stutter as much and the Walking Dead will run smoothly.

And no I do not pirate apps or games. I have plenty of money of my own to spend on devs and apps that deserve my support and I do.

Simply because you can link volume buttons to lock and home I would have to say no.

Exactly, and to be honest maybe just removing barrel will stop Nova 3 and Walking Dead stuttering for you. I'd still stand by updating because I'd say Siri would be actually more useful on an iPad, I wish I could get it on my iPad 2.

All I'm seeing are downgrades (on 3GS and iPad 2 here) so I'm gonna hold of. Some apps, like iPhoto, already requires iOS 6 tho wich kinda sucks.

Im also undecided to update or not. Im guessing the ipad2 and 4s should be fine but the one Im unsure about is the ipod 4g, it was much much smoother when it ran on ios 4 so my gut says its bestto not update but a tiny part of my wishes the performance to be better on ios 6.
