I'm one of those folks. I have to say that I was quite impressed by how 
the site uses Javascript; it makes it quite nice if you're in a modern 
browser. (I was using Safari.)

Then, curious about accessibility and graceful degradation, I tried 
accessing my Ta-da page via Lynx, and got a handful of wonky behaviors 
out of it. So I guess kinks are still being worked out. But then, I 
personally never know how much to worry about people using textual 
browsers anyway--and the site that I program for my day job doesn't 
degrade gracefully either--so perhaps the point is fairly academic.
