Yeah total spaces is pretty good. Not as good as snow leopard of course, but its moving in the right direction. The only thing is that on the multi touch trackpad sometimes I switch spaces up and down (which you cant do in Lion) when I am trying to scroll because I'll inadvertently have my thumb on the trackpad. Maybe thats one reason they removed up and down space switching as the multitouch track pads became standard. Overall though, this is a small inconvenience for the convenience of having spaces.
