In reply to triniriderz:
Just to add another point. Shoes in my experience seem to be very specific. I got a pair of La Sportiva Jekyll, a beginner's shoe, for the wall and a pair of Mythos ( a more expensive, intermediate shoe with a good reputation) for outdoors. But, what do you know, I can't get on with the Mythos and the Jekylls feel like a technical shoe to me. True, they have 5.10 soles now, but I lead up to HVS in them and they feel super solid seconding up to E2 5c.
My feet are size 47 and the Mythos are so long, pointy and floppy that I feel like Pierrot the clown in them!
I'd like to try the Katanas but they don't come in my size.
All the other makes seem to be too small at 47 and too big at 48, so I'm limited to La Sportiva at the moment. Assuming I've given up on Boreal.
So, personally, I'd take all this advice about the merits of any shoe with a pinch of salt. If a shoe feels wrong, it's wrong for you.
