I tried to use it to bypass a JS-wall on a news article today,
where the Wayback Machine only saved an "enable JS" page as well,
but it's finally been disabled. Links like this just go to an empty
search results page:
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://www.example.com/

Apparantly it only just happened, though they took away the cache
links in search results a while ago so the writing's been on the
wall:

Damn, I've been using it more and more as JS-walls have become more
frequent and prevent me reading pages in lightweight web browsers
without JS support. In fact it's about the only thing I use Google
for!
