In my personal opinion it is good to start NEW projects in Rails3 — RC1 was pretty stable and I had no problems with developing my apps in the new framework :) But there is a little problem with some plugins, some of them need to use exact version, branch or so :) So my answer is: "Start developing new apps with new Rails3" :)
... keeping in mind that just about every resource on the web except for Rails 3 specific ones and the Rails 3 API will have outdated information. A lot has changed in Rails 3 (for the better), but the significant changes to initialization (bundler), plugin hooks, ActiveRecord (arel), ActionPack etc might make it harder since you will have very little to no help available on the web. It all depends on how much time you have to get the hang of the new version. Us seasoned Rails developers have it a bit easier, since we only need to get rid of old habits.
Do check out the Railscasts.com screencasts on Rails 3, they can come in quite useful. Also, given the vibrant Rails community, it probably won't take long for Rails 3 posts to pop up everywhere.
That said, it's a good idea to start developing in Rails 3 right away, but keep what I've said in mind :-)
