I am with the 'meh' crowd. Scrolling barely works (far too slow to use my mouse wheel).
No transitions (should have used Flash ;-) )
Just kinda, well, there. Nothing inspiring me to look twice, nothing interesting about the functionality (really pretty boring, kinda like a site prior to really well designed functional Flash sites).
Oh, wait, maybe there are supposed to be transitions, they just don't work well...? That would be worse.
An improvement over their previous site, though, which wasn't good (imho).
I really hope this massive abandonment of Flash based sites doesn't put sites back a decade (what I have seen with html5 so far). This site seems like a draft version of the sites below.
Reminds me of these:
http://spin.co.uk/ (which, imho again, is a superb site and great example of making something functional and sexy)
www.bartleboglehegarty.com (another superb site, scrolling work flawlessly, very engaging)
http://www.fborn.com (again, superb site, scrolling works really well, very sexy)
