The only cool & fresh thing about this binding is that independent release spring in the false heel hook.

Mating TLT toe with that kind of boots seemed like no-brainer.

Touring lock location is stoopid(tm). They'd better put it somewhere else to facilitate on-the-fly mode change...

I can surely tolerate the lack of brakes, but $700 price? No Freakin' Way.

Also, for that kind of money I'd expect them to have crampon compatibility AND heel locking machinery (not hampering release and ski flex, that is). Weight seems right, though.
I like all kinds of snow. The only poor snow I know of is ice. That better be climbed.
