Brendan once said "JS is a curly-brace language and it always will be". I think the -> looks works very nice with a pythonic-like forced indentation like Coffeescript has.

I also think familiarity should be considered and that #(x) { x * x } would be more familiar to the casual JS programmer. Juan
