Reserve is a little more stable on it though (no scheduled RRs, stable trips, etc). I am completely in love with the 900 though. It is an absulute joy to fly. I think you may have called it shiny jet syndrome, but there's more to it than just that.

Moral of the story is:
If you're lower seniority than me: I highly recommend coming up to the 700/900. Great airplanes, good routes, stable reserve

If you're higher seniority than me: Terrible airplane, long flights, horribly long reserve, old crusty captains.......

You get my drift
