Just ordered my spray gun, New technology gun Options

I just ordered my spray gun. I chose a Divilbiss G670 gun. This is a new technology gun that claims to be perfect for low air consumption. This may be the ideal gun for us do it at home types - I have a 30 gal. sears compressor. It is rated for 9cfm @ 30 psi.

Technically, it is not classified as an HVLP gun, but it offers the same benefits such as > 65% transfer effeciency.

paid $275. Anyone else paint their own?

This is what I copied from the Devilbiss website. Apparently it is the first non-HVLP spray gun to get the OK from the EPA in states. I don't really know what makes a gun qualify as HVLP, but this one meets the government requirements. The people over at Autobody101.com forum say that alot of professional sprayers are going to this gun. It just seemed like the perfect gun for the do it yourselfer in the garage.
