Haven't physically seen it yet, but I'm interested. I'll try and remember to post up my thoughts when it comes into my office.

Pretty much the Hubba Hubba, but Carbon poles.

Checked out their Skinny One/Too the other night and was impressed with the weight and room it offered inside. Good size vestibule as well.

Tonymoe, not first hand use of the Twin Sisters, but I know lots of people swear by the single wall floor less designs. The Black Diamond mega series is another real popular set up to the MSR. I'm sure you wont be disappointed, especially with a weight of under 2lbs.
