I switched to DE coming on a year ago. I didn't get a new DE but went for some of the older models (available off ebay for cheap).
My favorite one regularly goes for about 5 bucks (They are usually tagged with: Canadian 1932 "military issue" like these: http://cgi.ebay.ca/LOT-2-GILLETTE-SAFETY-RAZORS-3-PIECES-BLADES-/140424595386?cmd=ViewItem#ht_2836wt_1139 http://cgi.ebay.ca/LOT-2-GILLETTE-SAFETY-RAZORS-3-PIECES-BLA...).
The first week I shaved before bed to get the hang of it. Went slow, paid attention to technique, beard growth direction, etc.
After that I shave almost every morning after my shower. Takes ~10 minutes including Lather, Shave and Cleanup.
For me, I like it. I have a small collection of some cooler looking old DE razors. Buy blades for incredibly cheap. And can enjoy a variety of shaving creams.
