Thanks for the warning. I won't update. Are we missing anything outlandish in this update?

The only reason for the update was the security issue with .pdf. This was the issue that allowed the new iphones to be jailbroken.

iOS 4.0.2 Update for iPhone and iPod touch
FreeType

CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1797

Available for: iOS 2.0 through 4.0.1 for iPhone 3G and later, iOS 2.1 through 4.0 for iPod touch (2nd generation) and later

Impact: Viewing a PDF document with maliciously crafted embedded fonts may allow arbitrary code execution

Description: A stack buffer overflow exists in FreeType's handling of CFF opcodes. Viewing a PDF document with maliciously crafted embedded fonts may allow arbitrary code execution. This issue is addressed through improved bounds checking.

The only reason for the update is to close the "security hole" that allowed JailBreakMe to work.
