Hi Esaky,
The Google PageSpeed Service (as distinct from other Gogole PageSpeed Tools) is in free beta right now:
https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/service
It's a Front End Optimization (FEO) service which is a bit different from a CDN. A CDN tries to make your page faster by putting the static files (particularly the big media files) closer to the user.
Front End Optimization Services do a lot of optimizations to your site, that are things you could do yourself but in practice turn out to be difficult for many of us to keep implemented These are things like: minification of your html and CSS, consolidation of your images into sprites, compression and optimization of your media files.
As it turns out, CDN's only speed up your site some of the time, while front end optimization will always help (unless your site is already perfectly optimized). The downside with google is you have to sign up, get invited, and then you don't have any service level agreement, etc.. since it's a free service. So it may not be your best option for a commercial site just yet.
CloudFlare is an inexpensive service (with a free option) that has some CDN and Front End Optimization features. Torbit and Strangeloop are two good commercial services that offer front end optimization. Blaze is a front-end optimization service that was acquired by Akamai, so you can now buy CDN and FEO from Akamai (although their basic CDN service does not include FEO).

I believe google page service is still in beta and on an approval-only basis. Looks useful and I've seen claims that it's shaved 1-2 secs of load times.
