I downloaded the 2.0 tar for netbook-launcher from it's launchpad page, and after a bit of swearing, managed to compile it :D
Here are some screen shots of it running on my Compaq mini 700. The screen res is 1024x576 and I am running Jaunty.
It's worth noting that I am not using the default netbook remix theme, but a mix of the Humman-murrine-netbook controls, the shiki-colors-easy-metacity window border and Gnome-human icon theme that comes with shiki colours, which combined I think gives a much nicer theme than the default netbook remix theme. Only the icons on the actual netbook launcher can be changed, it seems the colors are hardwired into it. There are also 2 favourites folders - one from the previous version of the launcher that I can't seem to remove.
Overall, I think it looks good - very shiny :KS
