Should I patch or should I jailbreak?

The iPhone is great product, but the dependency on the AT&T network and the lame restrictions both companies put in place make it a-less-than-ideal experience.  My biggest complaint is the inability to use a local SIM card when I travel to Europe for business.

It’s ironic that after so much effort to digitally sign firmware updates, one can jailbreak iOS 4.0.1 by exploiting a security vulnerability.  The vulnerability is so dangerous though that it’s hard to argue against patching when the fix is eventually released.

I’m so torn… should I patch or should I jailbreak?
