There have been IDN enabled browsers in Finland and Germany for at least a year now and 99% of the people still don't know that IDNs exist.

I was talking with a german computer engineer friend of mine today and he didn't know about IDNs - he was amazed when I showed him my german domains. He also told me that a lot of german people don't know that you can type ä into the search box of google and get correct results, so some of them search with "ae". This may be true from what I have seen. You check search stats for a german term from within germany and it's 70% searched with ä and 30% searched with ae.
