Usable, no. Programmers may get it, thats their job to deal with UI. A non programmer user will not get it. And as a proof, one of the drupal engineers did a sample test on 10 users with expected results: They did not get it. So typical for web developers to look at something flashy and sing its praise, without really understanding what it is. Maybe thats why they like jquery, it reduces the knowledge level to a point where your average web developer can get things done without understanding. Degrades nicely, maybe. Usable, no.

It also reloads the bg images on every mouseover. I know IE is a pain in the ass but its a necessary evil. Also, I don't consider it to degrade nicely as usually you will use dropdowns instead of a single text input for time.
