It often seems to go something like this - site gets initial visit by
Google, site appears in index, site disapPears from index, site gets cached
but not fully indexed and reappears in index without PR, site gets fully
spidered, site gets PR, site gets to number 1, you become wealthy and retire
to a life of luxury. (I may have made up the last few)
Perhaps you already know, if you install the Google toolbar you have links
to check Google's cache, your PR, Google's backlinks for your site...
BTW, the advice on keywords was generic, I didn't know what your search
terms were. You seem to have got the keywords in the crucial areas but my
big concern would be that the site needs more text ("copy" - idiomatic).
Google likes content-rich pages - lots of words, lots of appropriate use of
your target terms.
The suggestion about removing the title attribute was to reduce the
"noise" - stuff that Google has to sift through but which adds nothing to
its indexing of the page - it's also a bonus that you get when using css as
you have, less noise in the html source.
Best of luck.
