Default Brother Dream Creator XE VM5100

Does anyone have any comments on the Dream Creator sewing and embroidery machine? I've got my eye on it , but haven't been able to find much in the way of reviews.

do you want to sew stock designs or create your own designs. if you like to create, make sure the software does what you want. if you want to sew/embroider quilting designs in blocks, make sure to try it by hooping or clipping to the hoop a larger sized quilt and make sure that it will sew it out the way you want. say you want to embroider several [stars for instance] of the same color... does the machine cut between each star? if so, does it start the next star without the thread coming unthreaded? in embroidery mode, can you turn off the cutter if you want to leave long tails to bury? just some questions to consider

Any v-series machines is awesome, however the muvit foot does not come with it and the price difference between it and the dreamweaver are not great enough when considering that accessory IMHO. That being said the v-series machines have lost of great features and sew through anything.

Thank you, any one else out there with comments on this machine? I'm also looking at Pfaff Creative Sensation and am having a hard time finding reviews.
