KDE 4.2 Beta 1 availble for Intrepid

Instructions on how to upgrade here:

Warning! unlike neon this will update your current KDE install - there is no 
backing out.

Having said that I *really* like it, KDE 4.2 is going to be awesome. Actual 
New and improved features in KMail!

However it is quirky, I had a lot of problems getting kmail running. The 
Akonadi server was broken to start off with and eventually I had to disable 
akonadi altogether.

The problem with columns loosing their settings and getting random widths is 
worse than ever.

If you have custom plasma applets they will probably be broken. Installation 
from source can fix this if you'r game :)

Right click spelling suggestions inline with Konqueror!

Heaps of UI tweaks which I quite like on the whole. Definitely a big step 
forward, like from 4.0 to 4.1
