I have started using Ubuntu 10.04 from the day it was released. In fact, I
was using it from the RC days.

The major difference I have seen so far in Ubuntu is :
- much better support for hardware Eg., my iPhone is detected much more
gracefully out of the box
- generally faster performance  : but I don't have any metric for this. I
just remember the startup times of app like FF and Thunderbird and
gnome-console from 9.10 and 9.04 days. And of course, the startup and
shutdowns are much faster too.

So basically, I would advise you to start using 10.04 asap. There are no
stability, reliability heads-up as such.
