Default Yaesu FT897 - what are your views on this rig.

Hello,
I am thinking of selling up my Kenwood TS790 VHF/UHF rig
and getting one of these portable Yaesu FT897' for both HF
and VHF/UHF contest operation.
Well I would like to hear what the views of others are .
I have already read some of the reviews on eHam.net
I just want to pole a larger number of people.

What have you found are good and bad about the rig ?
is the FE any good for DX working and will it cope with
BIG signals near to the RX frequency .. Etc Etc
