The DVX is a sweet camera indeed. I shot a project on a DVX-100 recently, for a 5-day "film" festival. In reality everyone shot on video, but we'll overlook that small detail.
I finally got the trailer to load (damn college networks) and I must say, it looks damn fine. It's really cool to see projects beyond the realm of student films, where I'm firmly planted right now.
I can definately relate to low budget productions taking forever though. I'm currently shooting a short 16mm film on a CP-16R. We had originally planned to be completely finished with the production by now, but in reality, we've only finished about 60% of the shooting, let alone waiting for the film to get processed and sent back to us so we can start post.
