Update -
I've been using the hydro5 almost exclusively for a month.
I miss DE shaving, but I've been getting better and more consistent results with the hydro 5 and a tube of proraso green than I ever had from anything in my shave collection. AND that's saying a lot (if you look over my posting history, I'm pretty well versed with DE shaving and have quite a collection).
The one downside to me is the cost - it's NOT the cheapest way to shave... it's not quite as bad as the fusion, by any stretch, but it's not nearly as good as DE in terms of economics. (though to be honest, I spent LUDICROUS money on DE shaving accoutrement... )
