Didn't even know they had them until I saw your post. Even then the only place I could find one was on the German Walther page. They selling them in the states yet?

Yes, they're being sold, I've seen them. They feel a helluva lot better than the Glock 26/27/29s, IMO. If they had made one in .45 I'd have had one on order. Alas, they do not.

I've held one and wasn't that impressed (compared to a full P99). Here's a comparison between the two:
The only real advantage you get after the finger rest on the mag is ~1/2" on the barrel and 1/2" on the grip. With the same width, but 6 rounds less and much less desirable ergonomics (lot less room around palm, for example) I would prefer to carry the full P99 personally.
Then again, I must admit I don't care a whole lot about hiding my sidearm as I usually open carry in Virginia. The 1/2" each way may be more important to those of you that really have to hide your firearms.
