This looks like an alternative to a dahon cadenza, which also tempts me - from the pictures above it folds MUCH smaller and doesn't seem to use tools (or needs to unbolt the handlebars).

No, sorry - I disagree. Even from the pictures above its obvious that even the new IF Cross, with bigger 700c wheels folds MUCH smaller than the Dahon. The dahon is a good all round bike, at a good price, like all Dahon bikes a really good formula. But it annoys me how the handlebars have been unscrewed in the Dahon picture - I guess after spannering them off they are just left to dangle ??... this may be fine if you've got time to dismantle and space for it in the 4x4 but would just not do on my crowded commutor train.

Only snag - I bet these new bikes cost an arm and a leg, when they finally arrive in the UK .. maybe worth a trip to half-price heaven (thats USA for us brits).
