Yes it does work
I got this to work in PHP to my remote host www.rexdesign.com as follows
You have to experiment with the settings in the Properties Panel
Temporary File = /tmp/ (the default setting of %TEMP failed)
File Folder = myuploaddir/ (note the trailing slash)
CHMOD this upload folder to 777 so it's able to be written to.
A caveat : the path to the file does not get written to the DB, only the uploaded file-name making it very difficult to show/link the uploaded file in other pages.
It's amazing and very un-professional not to have even a small paragraph in the Beta Release Notes describing usage of this new feature, how are people going to test this without any documentation?
Hope this helps
Greetings
Dave

agree with ya Dave,
also the renaming of the file by putting a timestamp.filename.ext format on it is anoying. This means that if I upload a picture called test.jpg it will be named 20020309122653.test.jpg. I now decide to edit the picture and upload it again. Now I have two test pictures because the old one isn't removed because the two have distinct names because of the timestamp. I have to manualy select and delete the file. Strange. It would be helpfull if there was some documentation on how this class works so I can fiddle with events to change this.
