we use it to do manage 2 environments (test and live).
Within that we add config for each node (app server, db, web server) and then use puppet to manage all the dependencies (s/w and refs to each other) as well as URL handling etc etc.
The, here, is that adding a node is a matter of adding to ec2, installing puppet on it amend puppet config and then refreshing each node to a) tell them about the new node and b) get the new node to install all the requisite s/w onto itself.
Its great for ensuring all the nodes are consistent. I would say the learnig curve is quite steep; i inherited the initial setup so had a basis to learn.
Now i've got a handle in it, its great.

oh?
got scripts or examples?
sounds like an approach we might want to document
the examples we have require just a few dependancies - is Puppet good for a larger docket or good for revision control?
