I saw the ISS and shuttle pass over the Tampa Florida area around 5:50 AM EST, 1050 UTC. This is about 20 min after undocking while the shuttle was still backing away.

With binoculars, I could barely see some separation with a smaller dimmer object leading a bigger brighter object. I couldn't make out any structure on the ISS but could tell it was bigger than the shuttle.
