The visual marking works well, except the rectangular marking, but I can get along with cua for these cases. Obviously, you won't have every vim command, but in combination with the power of emacs you can have most of it or even more. Once you got used to some annoying stuff in the visual mode (marking to the end of the line stops at the last character) it is great :-) Regards!
