Warning: Lazy copycat from openSUSE News ahead! 
The KDE team today released KDE 4.1. The KDE developers, including the openSUSE KDE Team, have been working on it for the last six months. Lots of feedback from people trying out KDE 4.0 has gone into KDE 4.1, filling most of the gaps people experienced with the 4.0 releases. See the release announcement for more information and screenshots.
Regular KDE 4 Packages and an openSUSE-based KDE Four Live CD have been available throughout the whole cycle, and final versions of them are also available now. On openSUSE 11.0 you can use 1-click-install to get the KDE 4.1 desktop environment (for openSUSE 10.3 follow above link):
Or you can choose to install a more basic KDE 4 desktop. Developers can also optionally install the KDE 4 build dependencies: all the packages you need to have installed for compiling KDE 4.x from source (experts only).

Live USB version?
Is it possible to create a liveusb version of this? I would dearly like to use this on my laptop which has no cd drive.
I have used the liveusb creator of Fedora with FC9 and it works brilliantly. However, a spin of the livecd (on my desktop, which has a cd drive
) makes me want to use 4.1 instead.
Re: Live USB version?
The official Kiwi way includes a remastering for USB but you can try this.

They are in KDE:KDE4:Factory because they are the same as in our Factory distribution which will lead to openSUSE 11.1.

Yes, after openSUSE 11.1 release in December (and until openSUSE 11.1++ release) KDE:KDE4:STABLE will contain KDE 4.1.x packages.
Ok, so, KDE4:/STABLE will
Ok, so, KDE4:/STABLE will continue with 4.0.4 until openSUSE 11.1...
Thanks.
