Has anyone tried this wetsuit? As you'd expect there is almost no real information on the SP website. Is it really warmer than a normal 7mm (like SportDiver mag claims) or just more hype?

I'm seriously thinking about buying this suit, but want to know what others think. I'm hoping this second posting will encourage others to respond.

I am very happy with it. I am tall and narrow (6' 2" and 170 lb) and it's one of the few suits I tried with long enough limbs while still snug in the torso.
It seems warmer than the cheaper 3mm suit I tried, but this could be due to better fit. The inner lining dries quickly, the suit design looks good, and so far shows no signs of adverse wear. I have worn it in water down to 68 degrees without being cold. The neck seal is rather more serious than others I have seen, and can be tight when bending over to put on fins, but not to the point of choking.
