Great. So I don't have to worry about undoing patches in order to get updates, then. I know for a lot of devices, you can't get updates when the device is jailbroken or changed in various ways. . I'm a bit nervous to try patching, since it's going to be a brand new device, but some of the patches sound super awesome.
