not really, to run applications you need to right-click on the desktop and 
select Run Application or runner (can't recall off the top of my head the 
exact string) and type in the actual application name (eg. dolphin, 
konqueror, kontact, etc...)

If you hover over the big gear in the upper left corner you'll be able to add 
some additional 'plasmoids'. Not all of them worked for me. I was able to get 
the photo one and the battery one to work. the panel and application launcher 
didn't work

I'd be curious to know if kubuntu will be releasing beta4 packages as beta 4 
was released yesterday
