The NetWeaver 2004s ABAP Trial Version which was distributed at TechEd Las Vegas (and will be in Amsterdam and Bangalore) is also available at the download area here on SDN:

It is basically the same ABAP Server as before (now SP8) but with a completely new installer which is much faster then the previous Sneak Preview. In fact you can have your running ABAP system after less than half an hour on a decent desktop PC (compared to 5-8h before). The installation itself is also more robust and has been specifically developed for typical end user desktop PCs.
(The old installation was based on the installation for full blown ERP systems, typically done by experienced system administrators and required more preparation.)
However, the download files are a bit larger now.
