I still see the radio buttons when I access google.com.au from the US, so I don't know what to say. A few weeks ago someone reported the same for another country Google but their situation reverted quickly.

It nearly got me when I checked. It loaded without the radio buttons, but then the buttons faded in along with the image & video links etc, but it did take a few seconds.

For Google India, no radio button option is coming from around 2 weeks now.

The radio buttons are now gone from my google.com.au page but they are on the results page once the search has been completed. Im on the Gold Coast.
I have to say i'm not impressed with the new layout with the extra left column always there. There is quite a lot more white space to the right of the AdWords ads. It's a bit squashed in for my liking.

OK - they are gone now. Looks like I am now seeing the new interface.

The "wonder wheel" is particularly untidy -

The new layout has been rolling out since mis-morning.
Results are stable too.

This feature seems to have bypassed iGoogle users who still see the radio buttons here in Australia.
I'm in Melbourne and still seeing the new version without radio buttons today too.

The wonder wheel looks pretty neat. A lot of potential for dynamic search for the average user with this new UI overall.

One more really cool thing is the Custom Range (date) search, is this searching through individual data sets for the specific time range ? A lot of hints there for webmasters :)

Google officially blogs about the changes to their search page.

Even from the old interface, a lot of these features (all of them?) are available by clicking on "+options" at the top. I often use the date range search when trying to sort out sequences of events over the recent past. and Wonder Wheel is a good check on the wider keyword niche that my sites are hoping to reach.

Wonder wheel is handy but its ugly the way it displays results IMO, all jammed down the RHS.
