I'd say if it ain't broke, don't fix it. :-)

I upgraded mainly for two reasons:

1) HDTV benefits from the 2.6 kernel and I wanted to get my pcHDTV card 
running agin
2) So I could update my doc, since people have been asking for FC2 stuff

Things are still a bit hairy with FC2 (compared w/FC1), esp. in the ivtv 
arena. However, FC1 goes end-of-life before much longer... It's supposed to 
get picked up by Fedora Legacy, but FL is kinda dead in the water at the 
moment... Still, I'd probably just wait until you have a compelling reason to 
upgrade.
