thoughts on ios 6.1 stability/bug fixes?

Just got a push notification on my ipad saying that ios 6.1 is out.

Anybody brave enough to try it and how is it compared to 6.0.1? (stability and bug fixes are my main concern)

If the numbering schemes are to be trusted, I would figure 6.1 is different enough from 6.0.1 that it gives Apple a chance to break some new things.

I got burned really badly by 6.0 and thankfully 6.0.1 was good enough to fix most of the crash-and-burn problems from 6.0, but these days, I don't trust Apple to come up with anything decent.

No problems with iOS 6.1 on my Verizon iPhone 4... If anything, it seems to be a bit more stable than 6.0.1. On my mother's 4s, it seems that the dropped call problem has disappeared.
