Yup, it works! Says "safe mode" in the bottom left corner.

Only difference I can see so far is that most of my apps have disappeared from the drawer. A quick "google" provided the answer - in safe mode no third party apps are loaded (bit like windoze). This means you can uninstall any app thats giving you boot loop problems or force closing on start.

Thanks for pointing this out Rammy - useful! Another one for the FAQ!
