On the team's blog you can see now that they've confirmed aquisition of signal from Rosetta after the flyby, and that they'll be showing us the data very soon:
The Rosetta team are expecting the next data download opportunity via NASA Goldstone starting at about 01:00 CEST, 6 Sep. Image and science data will start arriving about 02:00, and the science teams will work through to process the results.
