Very cool, but I don't see it as a competitor to Picasa or other programs like it. They do two different things, and are more complimentary than competitors.

I wonder when we will an actual product based on Photosynth released?

You can try a demo on this page:

Unfortunately, I don't think you'll be able to load your own photos into Photosynth... at least not initially.

I think you will when it's released (which is supposed to be this year).

But I thiknk for most photobrowsing applications Picasa or similar competitors will be appropriate. But when you want you'll be able to click "View in context" to see the world around it and see how two of your pictures are linked

"One of the questions we’re often asked is when people will be able to create their own 3D collections. This is something we’re absolutely committed to but will not be available in our first external release."
