No opinions at all??

depends how much you're getting it for, what components are on it... and if you like the geometry.

as far as the components- no idea what it has. free agent doesn't list them, nor did the few online bike shops i checked just now. i'd imagine they're kinda low end, given the price of the bike ($359 at a couple places)... but it could be a decent entry-level bike that can be upgraded upon if/when things break.

if the '08 is the same as the '09, it looks like it's all cro-moly and have some reasonable geometry (as far as what i like, anyway).

before dropping your hard earned cash... check and see if any local bike shops have one, and what else is out there to compare it to. DK, Mirraco (i think), We The People and Fit (though the price starts going up) all offer pretty reasonably trail/street oriented somewhat modern cruisers.

since you mentioned an '08, are you getting it used, or at a closeout sale?
