Apogee or Zalman

Ok, I'm looking at getting a new water block and I'm debating between the apogee and the new zalman zm-wb4. I know the apogee is tried and true method but I'm intrigued by this new Zalman water block. Does anybody have any data / information on the new zalman waterblock? Opinions? BTW I only want feedback on either of these blocks. I do NOT want to hear about Storm blocks or any other block except for these two. I'm well aware of the Storm and other jet impingent (sp?) blocks but I have my reasons for excluding them. So on that note let the discussion begin.
 
I haven't seen any reviews but simply judging by the design I would expect the Zalman to perform similaraly performance curve wise to the Cuplex XT and the AquaXtreme MP-05. However I will be across the board worse. It uses the same basic pin grid methodology, but none of the "impingement". I would personally stick with the Apogee, but the Zalman block doesn't look horrible if you want to give it a try.

Ditto here aswell :D the zalman block looks just cheap..... well is cheap. it allso seems that barbs on the zalman block are intergrated to the block... well to me they seem to be, not necessarily a bad thing, but proplematic then swiching to thicker tubing. go for the apogee.
