Very worth it.

I got mine for $400 with a case and screen protector. Practically BNIB, and I couldn't be happier without it.

It shits all over all the existing roms in terms of smoothness.
I never thought of ICS as being 'choppy' by any stretch, but it clearly was compared to this.
The UI is smooth everywhere now.
No stuttering opening the app drawer, no stuttering when moving to widgets. Scrolling and EVERYTHING is smooth.
Definitely 'iOS smooth.'

Project Butter is as smooth as Linaro

although linaro is different in a sense that it optimizes the framework of ICS to run BUTTERY SMOOTH as well as PERFORMANCE increases

Its been... a lil more than 8hours since release
straight up rooted/deodexed rom is available(what I posted)

i would imagine that once the actual source code is released, then Kangs and Cyanogen will get crackin

The current release of jelly bean is also incomplete so not many devs are gonna work much on this release.
