Thanks for all the hard work Steve. I have been waiting for ember 1.0 to really give it a proper go but I'm looking forward to it. It seems like a slightly steeper learning curve than something like backbone but I'm sure it will do more for you once you get to grips with it.

The peepcode on Ember is really worth the $12, it's a great introduction. I really believe in what Ember is doing quite a bit.

As far as Ember vs. Backbone, it's like Rails vs. Sinatra: Backbone is 'easier' but then you have to write a ton of stuff yourself. Ember has more going on, but you write a lot less code.

But where Ember really shines is the way it deals with URIs and routing. I think it's super far ahead of other JS frameworks in this respect, and I hope routing.js sees some pickup.
