Facebook launches new profile layout

No invitations needed, no waiting for availability for your account or nothing. Just head over and grab it. […]

You will not be able to switch back to the old design after upgrading. They will be rolling it out to everyone eventually, so just grab it and get used to it. You might even find it better. Check out the screenshots if you would like to see it before hand.
