Agree on the small 'lytics - the pads are okay for oven soldering, but for hand soldering you have to be extra careful to not cover up the other pad when sliding on the can. Sjostrom's buffer boards (also highly recommended) are better as the pads are longer.
The board design is sound with some traces being a bit too close for comfort to pads that must not be connected. Some markings are a bit harder to decipher, but all in all it's understandable for such a densely populated board.
As for the QRV-01... TEMPT ME NOT, HEATHEN!
But seriously, I'm not convinced it will be better than the 08. Also it looks like PA isn't too eager to deal with them judging by the price of the board.
