Personally, I don't think I would like it. There are quite a few hills where I live and I need the lower gears for most of them, especially one particular ride I do fairly regularly; about 1700 feet elevation gain in about 5 miles.

The "fixies" seem to have gained a lot of popularity lately though, one guy even completed RAAM last year on one.

One thing to know is that you can't freewheel on a fixie; you have to keep pedaling all the time.
