I sold my Iwata because it was S-L-O-W. I have a DeVilbiss finishline 3 also with a conventional air cap and a 1.5 fluid nozzle that I still use occasionally with single stage but you definitely need good ventilation because it really kicks up a fog so I wouldn't recommend it, but it puts the paint down slick and fast.
I have not found anyone saying anything bad about that DeVilbiss gun so far. It's on my shortlist along with the HVLP gun that fbrown says that he is using.
