Seen a bunch of people staing chrome to phone is not working. I have it working on my droid. You need to enable it through the app. I also am using Firefox on my PC, so you need the firefox addon called send to phone.... This puts a nice little clickable icon between the address bar and your google search bar your browser window. Hit that and it will send your page right to the phone. You can also right click on images or links and send to phone.

It does work....if u on the latest release of Froyo. (FRF57) On the initial release it didnt work. Unless there has been a chrome to phone update that makes it work on the old release of Froyo.

And yes, once installed, u have to register the phone by clicking on the app on the phone and hitting Register Device. Also, put the checkmark on "Launch Browser/Maps Driectly" in the app to send websites to the phone. Some ppl forget to do that too.

Hell yea chrome to phone is probably my favorite froyo feature right now. I switched to chrome from firefox after google announced this feature at I/O(I know there is an addon to firefox) and I must say that chrome blows firefox out of the water IMO, and I loved everything about firefox.
