Thanks to all who responded to my inquiry about the stability of 
9.0(1) software. 
The responses were varied, to say the least.  Most users who 
responded said they were running 9.0(1) just fine using TCP/IP 
routing and transparent bridging.  This is the real world side.
However, feedback from cisco reps ranged from "there are bugs" and 
"be cautious" to it's "probably the stablest release cisco has 
shipped".
 
So go figure.  It sounds like there are bugs, but each one is 
configuration dependent (as always).  If you're running 9.0(1) and it 
works, don't knock it.  If you try 9.0(1) and it doesn't work, well 
there is probably a known bug.  Personally, I haven't had the best of 
luck lately with new software.  Maybe it's because we push each 
feature to the limit; I don't know.  But given our recent history of 
bug encounters, we would probably uncover every one.  So I will opt 
to delay until 9.0(2), unless I get adventurous :-)
