Typically, I do not like the publishing of two books on the same subject, but I like that there is a player's book and a DM's book. The DM doesn't have to wade through all the player info, and vice versa. One great thing about the player's guide is that it details what a player likely knows about a place. Rather than me filtering out what I think they would know, they can look it up.
The player guide also includes the Sword Mage class, which I am torn about. It just might be too powerful, particularly if it is one of the more powerful races, but if I run a game I will not disallow it. Apparently the drow are more tolerated, and are setup as a PC race in FR.
I look forward to playing it a bit when I meet some other players. Will report back :-)

Bah, all these new fangled books. I'm still getting used to 3rd edition, let alone 3.5 and 4. Now Forgotten Realms is split into 2 books? BAH I SAY.
I like 4e much better than 3.x. I think it is easier to play, and easier to build characters. I am a weirdo though :-)
The druid is back!
