I have one.  I think it's the same one you are referring to.  I used it a
lot last summer to make sorbets.  The consistancy of the final product
varied based on the sugar / liquid ratio of the base.

It helps if you have a large freezer that you can keep the canister in
all the time.  I found that it takes longer to get a thorough freeze on
it than they suggest.  We just keep it in the freezer all the time.
Chill the base well before putting it in also.  I usually made it the
night before and put it in the fridge in a pitcher - it made it easier to
pour into the machine since you have to do that while it's running.

I did lots of different fruit flavors ranging from pink grapefruit to
cantelope to white peach.  Watermelon got a bit icy.
