There's a news item on the Cassini website about the Nov. 6, 2011 flyby of Enceladus with synthetic aperture radar imaging, with a link to a video that shows the radar swath (overlaid on a non-radar image) and close-ups of two segments of the swath, as well as a link to one of the close-up segments.

Are there any images made from those observations? I don't recall seeing them.

Iapetus is here
Enceladus is here
and Rhea is here.

"I think I saw an image somewhere of Iapetus, but for the life of me I can't remember where. "

I think, that SAR image of Iapetus was firstly released in special Iapetus CHARM. And even here at UMSF, all these images are somewhere (in some Piotr Masek's post).

EDIT: Browse images for Enceladus and Rhea.
