You can already use TrueType webfonts using 100% CSS. I’ve written a script that replaces text nodes with images of that text using TrueType fonts. It works on all major browsers (IE/Firefox/Opera/Safari) and when TrueType fonts are finally available you do not need to make any adjustments to your stylesheets. It supports @font-face as well.

You do need a PHP capable webserver at the moment for the rendering of the images.

In comparison to sIFR it probably requires a bit more bandwidth, but you get to use almost all CSS text related properties. It requires no changes to your HTML code, and it does not require any manual work.

Interesting interview, thanks. I agree with the fonts, that’s the one thing that really hinders the slicing of a design.

From what I’ve read about CSS3 it sounds great, just a shame it will be ages before we can use it properly :(
