Use the export feature on your WP.com blog then use the plugin to import it. I used it about a week ago with no problems. The only down side is anything in your sidebar (lonks etc) will have to be recreated in your WP.org blog.
A small price to gain all the options available with your own hosted blog.

Marc nailed it. That plugin is really the way to go for moving from a WP.COM hosted blog to your own hosted blog.

The plugin is no longer needed.
The export needs 3 steps.
1. Export the data as xml then import to new db.
2. Import blogroll links direct from new dashboard.
3. Transfer images or write a bash script to do it :)
