My wife and I tried the SUMMER INFANT HAND HELD COLOR VIDEO MONITOR 2.5 inch Screen - 02100A earlier this year. Unfortunately, both channels on that device had significant audio and video interference. Depending on which way we held the receiver, we could see 3 other babies in the neighborhood. We were not comfortable with the fact that others would be able to look in our baby so we returned that model.
This item advertises zero interference and I'm happy to say this is very true. We are able to leave the monitor on at night and do not have to listen to the hum and static we experienced with the first monitor. We're also able to receive a very good audio/video signal over a block away from our house. We have 802.11B and 802.11G wireless networks as well as 2.4GHz cordless phones in the house .... none of which have been affected by the addition of this new wireless device. It also advertises a secure and private connection which appears to be the case as the camera and video monitor were synchronized at the factory.
The video quality on this unit is comparable to the 2100A model we tried, just on a slightly smaller screen. It's not TV broadcast or camcorder quality, but you can easily see what's going on. The color video on the monitor is a bit washed out. I can pick out some colors, but it's not much more than a black and white video. The infrared night vision is really cool! It produces a black and white image, but you can see details clear as day.
We haven't hooked up the crib soother yet. It's designed to attach with a type of clamp that doesn't easily fit the curved edges of our crib, but I think I can still make it work.

Update 7/14: I had to return this item as all of the sudden the monitor would lose connection multiple times during the night and would emit a loud buzzing noise as it tried to reconnect. In addition, you couldn't add a secondary camera to the unit, eventhough the remote had the option for 2 cameras. I wish it would have worked better.
I was on the fence as to whether or not to buy a video unit. I chose this one as it was "secure" and promised no interference from my wireless phones/router.
In terms of audio, the unit is far more sensitive than both the Fisher Price and Uniden monitors I have owned in the past.
Video wise, I am very happy. During the day, the picture is in full color and very clear. Night time uses night vision. I was very surprised by how clear the picture was. We are very happy with this purchase. My only question is that I dont think you can add onto the unit (ie add another receiver). The receiver has a switch for a 2nd camera, but I do not see one for sale.
I have yet to use the Crib Soother, but can see that being very handy when the time comes.

I searched high and low for a good monitor for our newborn. I'm an engineering type who was very discouraged by the poor reviews of previous products and was glad I waited until this was released. Our house has two wireless networks (802.11b and g), a microwave and a slew of other wireless techno-gadgets.
We have experienced nothing but a clear image and clear sound. The build quality is solid. The crib soother is pretty cool, but we really don't use it much.
In night-vision mode, the resolution on the screen is just good enough that I can make out facial expressions and see my baby's pacifier...which is good enough for me.
The only reason I did not give this item five stars is because it apparently needs LOTS of light to work in day (color) mode as I haven't yet seen that happen. It's really not important to me as the product's purpose is extremely well fulfilled.
