Kurt, I personally own one, and like it very much, even though I keep my expectations according to the product, and don't expect FIRST CLASS "Magazine Cover" shots, as it is quite an entry level camera.
One thing I just dislike is the marketing strategy, as they point it out as a very easy "sort'a like point & shoot" DSO imager, and it has quite a steep learning curve, as any DSO imager would... (I expected this, but there's many out there that are now frustrated to find out that it is NOT AS EASY AS 1,2,3)
Anyways, it gives us "mere mortals with a lil' budget" the opportunity to image DSOs, and that's a thrill all by itself!
Take care!
