I myself think of Boba Fett as more of a sleeper piece, I believe that he will be far more useful once the KotOR set is released. I think we got about 3 pieces in this set that fall into that category, Canderous, Fett, and Sunrider. I somehow believe that we will find uses for all of them very soon.
I don't think Boba is a sleeper that needs to wait until Kotor. From what I hear from K-zoo, the Mando squads I built for my friend Lou are working very well so far against the current meta. Boba has penetration which makes him a beast against the speeder and other DR figs. Accurate grunts without wasting points on a commander is just plain beastly, especially when those grunts are pounding out 30 dmg shots, or double accurate cunning deadeyes. Ordo I am not impressed with so far, at least not in competitive squads. He is great fun with Uliq as a massive BG, but that's about where his utility ends for me. Nomi, you are quite right in your assessment, the potencial is great with her, its just a matter of time.
I should also add a very important point, Boba and the Mandos is the Vong JH counter. We will see them played and likely played well at Gencon. They can compete with the meta quite well.
