Lion full screen is here (for dev channel)

Yes, I just updated to dev 14.0.835.355 and now Chrome is update to use the Lion full screen mode. Yay!!!
 
Soho Notes and Reeder have also full screen support. There is also a beta of Omnifocus that enables full screen...
 
How come they didn't include TextEdit?

As regards Chrome, you can install Canary, the one I am using now, it does support full screen lion native mode and it works ok and sync with the stable version of Chrome, so it's a piece of cake.

The just released MAS version of 1Password now supports Lion's full screen mode (and Sandboxing).
 
The newsreader Gruml now supports Lion's full screen mode.

as does VMware Fusion 4.1

With an awesome twist:
The Lion full-screen button is used in virtual machine windows.[...]
Like other full-screen Lion applications, a VMware Fusion virtual machine moves to a new space when all displays are connected to the virtual machine.[...]

Switching to Full Screen mode on a secondary display uses the whole display but does not create a new space, which enables you to work in other Mac applications while the virtual machine makes full use of the secondary display.
 
Some others that I have discovered since (at long last) switching to Lion:

  • OmniGraffle
  • OmniOutliner
  • OmniFocus
  • NovaMind
  • DEVONthink
  • DEVONagent
  • Pixelmator
  • BBEdit
  • Diagramix
  • GraphicConverter
  • Scrivener
  • Timeline3D
  • ScreenFlow
  • Sente
