 I think it's awesome that the two of you ordered one.
I can't wait to see what other people turn out with the sous vide method.
First Pit Barrel Cookers, and now Anova circulators. I'm a bad influence! 

I just can't get Pnoon to finally break down and get the PBC. The force is strong with that one. 
 
Mark, curious why you think using a vacuum sealer would turn out a better product?  It's my understanding that the reason for removing the air is because it is a poor conductor of heat.  Was it that you weren't able to get out all the air with the immersion technique, or did you read something that a better vacuum holds in more moisture?
