Should I Upgrade to Windows 7 right away or wait a while?

i need help from some of the few people that have gotten their hands on the new Windows 7….i have just purchased a HP TOUCHSMART 12 IN 4GB 320GB LAPTOP TX2–1020US AS-IS…..i am not extremely tech savvy to say the least…i use computers for basic-moderate things…but i have been told by a few people that Vista on the Touchsmart, is very unresponsive, slow, and difficult to work with…and that i should upgrade when 7 comes out….

from the view point of the Fluther community….should i upgrade right away…or wait till the prices go down a bit??????
