Should I wait for SW2004 SP1?

Should I wait for SW2004 SP1?

Should I wait for SW2004 SP1?

(OP)
We have heard some scary stories of bugs in major releases in the past and so as a practice have waited awhile before doing an install. This is unfortunate because we users are always anxious to get our hands on the new improved tools. Has anyone been hearing anything about 2004 that might bump us either way, install/wait?
Thanks,

RE: Should I wait for SW2004 SP1?

The only thing I've really run into is issues with PhotoWorks and Animator.  The PhotoWorks problems are really just a pain in the a__.  PhotoWorks still works it's just buggy and tempermental.  Much like it is in 2003.  The animator stuff is more serious, for me anyway.  I can animate fine using SolidWorks materials but if I try and use PhotoWorks with Animator I have problems.

the core product has been fine so far and actually quite nice.  There are some great new features and the user interface is much better.
