I'm only interested in the blue/black or the Team ed's.
Another two weeks though to wait...

I used mine for the first time yesterday. Very nice, indeed. I know it's cliched, but for the first time ever, I can honestly say that it felt as if I had nothing on my head. The ventilation felt superior to the Ionos.

If fits similar to the Ionos, not like the Atmos. (for me at least).
It sits lower down the forehead, like the Ionos. (which is a good thing, I think)
The Atmos was always way above my glasses. (a little funny looking, for me)
Contrary to an online review I read. I was able to get Oakley Radar's and Split jackets to fit in the vents, for stowing them during climbing. (not as good as the Atmos, or Phenmo, but good enough)
I wish helmet companys took this into consideration during design. At least gave it more weight, so-to-speak. Maybe not enough people do it.
I miss my Pheumo. It was perfect.
Hopfully the Aeon will make up for it.

Ihmo i feel better with this one in compairison with my previous Atmos and Ionos plus it's very light...it feels like you have anything on your head.

Thanks! Ionos and Atmos are indeed (a bit) different, though they both fit me well, which I would think bodes well for the Aeon. Trying it on yourself is of course best, but I was curious what to expect (I don't believe it's for sale here yet).
And with the weight I can imagine it feels wonderful compared to a/o Ionos and Atmos, although I must say I've never thought those are too heavy when wearing one.

I've tried with Oakley, both radar and jawbone....

I definitely will!
(Not using my Ionos anymore after an accident last year. Now using my older Atmos, but I want a new helmet... The Aeon was announced just in time; otherwise I would've probably gotten another Ionos pretty soon.)
