I don't think any resellers here have it yet, unless they air freighted
copies over from Sydney. Only direct orders from Apple Online seem to have
made it out in to the wild.
Anyone wishing to try out a .mac web gallery should point their browser to

Very slick!
I'm not so sure on iMovie yet. I use FCE a fair bit now, so completely
changing the timeline editing arrangement will throw a lot of people
sideways I think. For a total noob, it will be excellent!

BTW, anyone can try out iWork, as there is a 30 day demo available from
Apple's website. Making Pages have standard Word Processing abilities
rather than just straight page layout is definitely going to make people
thinking twice about splurging on Office (normal users, power users may be
not).
