Personally, I think this is a no-brainer. I would get the Band, play with it, enjoy the great experience; And it will be a great experience. I have the Band with my Lumia Icon (930) and I love it Don't worry about Windows 10 yet. It's a Technical Preview bound to have bugs. Ask this question - would you purchase a new car that hasn't been fully built yet just so you can say you have the newest car on the block? Just be patient, use your new Band and update to W10 at a later date.
Now, as for the Band, I HIGHLY recommend these four apps:
1) Find My Band - can't tell you how many times I've set my band down and forgot where it was.
2) Clear My Band - wipes all prior notifications from the band
3) Band Monitor - great for showing you a lot of information about your band, including the remaining battery percentage
4) Camera Band Control - I've just recently purchased this app and I LOVE it! I was at a friends party the other day and I finally made it into a picture. I set the phone on a stand, got into the group shot with my friends and just pressed the MS Band button and said "Camera, take a picture" A few seconds later the camera snapped and took a great group photo, WITH ME IN IT! Wonderful app. It even counts down if you say "Camera take a picture in 10 seconds."
Enjoy the MS Band! I do!
