Just turned it on in BetterTouchTool in Snow Leopard last night and this morning it just felt so natural..
 
Took me a bit to get used to it but I'm using it all the time now. Seems entirely natural. Every time I have to use my work PC I get baffled when it doesn't work. I'll nee to invert scrolling on that.
 
It took me about 2 days before I stopped scrolling the wrong direction by accident every so often, now I am fully adapted to reverse scrolling and I think it makes the most sense. I have my BT keyboard and magic trackpad just sitting over my MBP's trackpad (Leaving about 2 inches at the bottom of the computer for my wrists) and because of the angle that they sit, it actually seems very natural to move the page rather than the scrollbar. My productivity surfing the internet (HA that's an oxymoron) has gone up dramatically, especially thanks to the inertia scrolling, it's so much more comfortable to surf the web the iOS way then the traditional way.
 
I'm completely adapted when I'm at home... But the problem is when I go to school. Of course they don't have Lion there so I have to use normal scrolling on Windows XP. It gets confusing.
 
Once I got used to it I couldn't see myself going back.

I love that navigation on OS X now works like navigation on my iPhone. It's quite natural.
 
Perfectly adapted (in fact it came second nature to me) when using my trackpad. However, my mouse should work in the standard way. I'd love to have different toggle settings for trackpad / mouse since i use both on one system regularly.
