OpenOffice 2.0, Beta Candidate 1.9m79, went out on the wire on Wednesday. Note well that this is not even a beta release but rather a beta "candidate". But if you want to live on the bleeding edge, you can get it here. Personally, I think I'll wait until the gold code, sometime in April or May, comes out. I anxiously await its release because if it can replace MS Word and WordPerfect, the last barrier to Linux will have fallen. And a glorious day that will be. When, not if, it comes.
