Used it for the first time Saturday night - certainly made getting back from South London to East London a hell of a lot easier and quicker than the usual 2 1/2 hours of night buses!
Loadings seemed pretty respectable (this was around 3am) - on the Victoria Line I was going against the flow but there were a decent number of people getting on at Vauxhall, and at Oxford Circus the Central Line platform was well-patronised. I was sat at the less busy end front of the train (deliberately) but there were lots of people down at the other end near the platform entrance, but even then all the seats were taken and we had a few standees.
It's a sea change from the horrors of the 25 (slow, usually packed to the rafters and impossible to board anywhere east of Tottenham Court Road). I was pretty impressed.
