I do ... at iancull42@googlewave.com ... but I find it very disappointing so far. Slow, difficult UI, and of course no-one else out there that I might usefully want to wave to.
I really wanted to try it out for developing product specs with co-workers / customers, but it's nowhere near good enough to risk on "regular" (non-tech" folks yet.

Yea, I was reading Gina Tripani's review of Google Wave (She's the founder of Lifehacker.  She says that right now, it's really good for programmers, collaboration folks, and such because of the ability to share between people.

So, do you think it's Google Mail and Google Docs' child?

Not yet ... there's no way to replace spreadsheets yet, and there's no real formatting for docs; right now it's really text edit collaboration with history

I think the thing everyone forgets is that it's still in "Preview", aka pre-beta.  It's just to give people an idea of what it does and can do.  I fully expect lots of good changes over the coming months/years.

As a UX/UI Architect - its def going to take a lot of people a long time, this was just a pet project playing with their API and then they just basically decided to release it and see where it goes.

Its a solid concept but lacks execution....def curious to see where it goes.
