Dvinfo has a short, informal review and comments on the HVX200 from a Japan-based user. The review centers on handling and operational concerns, and this user seems to be pleased with the camera. He has a few interesting comments about using an iPod to pull footage from the P2 storage:

“After filling up the P2 cards, you can easily download the data to iPod or something similar, then erace the clips on P2 card and start shooting again. When you have 2 4GB P2 cards then it would take about 12 minutes to do the back up to iPod. I’m okay with this now because I would be doing more planed, purpose oriented shooting, but folks with documentary oriented shooting, that could be a problem. But you can probably follow around the cast with DV and use P2 card recordings for more expression oriented shooting, you can expand your expressions a big deal.
Each time you do a back up on iPod or similar, HVX200 make an image of P2 card, so when you connect your iPod to your Mac, it would appear as each volume images on the desktop or show up in the P2 import window of FCP5 as volumes.”

He also praises the P2 review and playback mode, and mentions that the Manfrotto 507 head seems to balance out nicely with the HVX. Good stuff, read the whole review for the rest of it.
