No, not yet.

I'll have more confidence in the 787 when the NTSB have found their answers re. the battery failures and Boeing see fit to get rid of the Heath Robinson/Rube Goldberg workaround they have somehow gotten past the regulator.

I'm no engineer, just pax. I admit I could be worrying about nothing. If so, I'd suggest that Boeing 'extract digit' and spend generously of time & dollars, in showing the public that the 787 is no more risky than any other contemporary new design.
