Of course I couldn't wait to experience Fluxiom either; so far I can only echo Matthias' comments: It's a beautiful application, but unfortunately still a bit buggy. Tags don't seem to work at all at the moment (or I am too stupid to figure out how to use them*). The image quality of the thumbnails is surprisingly poor. I also wish it were possible to disable all the animations, fades &c. - gets a bit unnerving after a while and the application would feel much snappier without them.

If you're in the mood for trying out something today and don't want to hand over your CC# just to do so, I'd recommend filicio.us, a lean interface for your Amazon S3 account, developed by Steffen Christensen with the helping hands of Guan Yang. If they add in thumbnailing, it's probably not a lot less functional than Fluxiom for private use or small team scenarios. Storage costs for the 8 gigabytes which Fluxiom offers in the highest-end variant (!) would be a whopping $1.25/m. (Honorable mention: fili's Flash-based uploading widget recycled from 23. On a semi-related note, I can't help thinking that Fluxiom would almost certainly work much smoother were it implemented in Flash - but of course we've progressed way too far in the hype cycle for that to make waves.)

* Turns out, I am! Tags work quite differently in Fluxiom, losing much of the immediacy and direct-manipulation flavor of the originals.
