New Plunge Circular Saws

Is anyone using one of these. I see that Festool, Dewalt and Makita all have one. Would like some feedback from anyone using one.
Thanks in advance
Randy

Yeah, what rock did you crawl out from under?
Festool made the first one in 1964.

Neo, good times in '64?

Bite the bullet and get the Festool. It's not much more and it is worth the dough.
