SOAP vs REST

Hi All

First question - has anyone used a PCSoft generated REST server? If so, any gotchas or dos or don'ts? Does it just work like the SOAP ones just work?

Second question - is there a performance difference or a reliability difference? The SOAP stuff I am using works exceptionally well right now. Is the experience with the REST stuff the same, that is, it just works.

Cheers
Andre
