I was going to wait a bit before pulling the trigger to see if the Edge suffers from the same temperature drop as my Fierce, but:
I lack self control...
The PoV One Capsules fit perfectly. They should since they're likely the same part as the new Edge capsules. All of my PoV One accessories fit the Edge accessory attachment with no problems. The Sidewinder stem doesn't go deep enough into the accessory attachment to engage the o-ring, but it's a pretty snug fit and doesn't actually need the o-ring.
No robot fart flavors after a couple of burn-off sessions. I used my Volcano Hybrid to pump air thru the Edge via the intake on the bottom during my burn-offs so there
may have been a bit of robot fart flavor during the burn-offs, but it's definitely gone now.
I put two chambers and two capsules thru the Edge and did the same with my PoV One for comparison, using herb from the same grind. Initial impressions (relative to the PoV One) are mild disappointment but, admittedly, this was a pretty brief test. I want to give it a full workout over the weekend before really passing judgement.
For each of my sessions, I used the WPA adaptor and my favorite little glass (for air-cooling):

That glass is really not that great with water since there's nothing to prevent splatters from going right up the mouthpiece and into your orifice, but it's great for air-cooling; a definite step up from the Sidewinder in terms of cooling.
At the same temperature, the Edge doesn't milk up the glass quite as densely as the PoV One. The flavor is comparable, if possibly a bit more subdued... but I could be fooling myself there since I'm aware of the fact that the vapor isn't quite as dense. It looks like I have to increase the temperature by about 10 degrees for it to milk up the bong like the One does but I'm all "tested out" at the moment, so I'll have to play with it some more over the weekend and give my thoughts after that.
I haven't checked to see how much the temperature drops during my typical hits; will do that this weekend. During my normal sessions (3 to 4 hits to burn thru a capsule and 4 to 5 hits to burn thru a chamber), my firmware-updated Fierce drops over 20 degrees F and my One drops less than 10 degrees. Using that glass to do a hard hit, I can get the Fierce to drop 40 degrees F and the One about 25 degrees. For reference my Mighty drops about 10 degrees in that same hard-hit situation. 'Will be interesting to see how the Edge fares in comparison.
Also, please tell me that I'm not the only one seeing a smiley face in the bulb at the end of the Sidewinder stem in that photo... I mean, I DID vape a lot, but not THAT much!
