i unfortunately can't answer your question, but i can offer this advice from a usability perspective: don't do it. The lag involved in the animation is incredibly annoying. When a user navigates a site they expect it to respond quickly. Here we have not only the page load delay, but also the animation delay (which is longer than the load delay). When i click your Home button i've got to wait up to 6 seconds (on a 16MBit line). A quick profile with Firebox shows me that only about 1 second of that time is spend loading the page and its related graphics, so the other 5 seconds are wasted on the eye candy. What you've done is an interesting idea, but the lag is just too annoying. Another recommendation is to use the PACK'd jquery.js, instead of the uncompressed one. As it is now, jquery.js accounts for most of your page's size (80%+) because you're using the unpacked version. :D
