Here's, one for the new DA/Ultegra pedals. The wide(er) platform is a huge benefit for me.
I've never actually felt the float in clipless pedals, but you can see it by clipping in and they taking your foot out of the shoe. You should be able to hold the shoe in your hand and rotate it laterally without causing the mechanism to begin to open.
