They've been trialling this for a while I think; my home computer has the new interface and has done for at least a week. First impressions: "nicer" to look at for the most part - but no more or less functional (fresh is, I think, the best word for it). The sidebar is initially disconcerting/nasty but it's growing on me quickly.
