Apple released a 363.4 MB update to the iLife '11 suite of Mac Apps today. Well, for most of the iLife apps, anyway. Addressing some "general compatibility issues" as well as "overall stability and performance issues," the update is geared for Garage Band, iPhoto, and iMovie. Updates to the dead-man-walking apps iWeb and iDVD are not included in the release.
Edit: At the time of this writing, there were no updates for iWeb or iDVD. However, both apps now have updates available. The updates appeared this afternoon, and claim to "improves overall stability and addresses a number of minor issues." The iWeb update weighs in at 178.57 MB and brings the app to version 3.0.4, while the iDVD update is a modest 36.12 MB and brings the app to version 7.1.2.
The release brings Garage Band to version 6.0.4, iPhoto to version 9.1.5, and iMovie to version 9.0.4. The bulk of the update, 220.83 MB goes to iPhoto, with Garage Band and iMovie receiving 53.72 MB and 76.20 MB, respectively.
iPhoto gets the Lion gray icon treatement.
The updates, which can be downloaded and installed while you work and do not require a reboot, can be accessed through Software Update on your Mac, or directly from the Apple website here. But as always, remember to save your work before updating.

I can say that in Lion, all of the apps (except iDVD and iWeb) get the full-screen treatment. It doesn't matter seeing that both of those products are end-of-line, presumably because iDVD will get folded into iMovie and apple just killed web hosting. Also, in the release notes of iMovie, it says it now allows people to directly import movies from iMovie on iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad into iMovie for Mac. Took them long enough.
