How tough did you find the Megaminx?

[panyan]

So, my Megaminx arrived from DX a few hours ago, and I solved it in what must have been just an hour the first time, intuitively too. It's like a beefier version of the 3x3. I had to figure out two new algs for corner and edge cycles, but other than that, it was really simple :| How did you find it?

What methods do people use to do this puzzle fast?

i completely agree, just a few more f2l/s2l moves

If you know how to solve a 3x3 it should be pretty easy to solve. The LL is a different story of course, but I didn't have to learn any new algorithms to solve it, just using them for a different purpose.
