Here's what other sites are saying:

From RockCreek:
"The Men's Houdini Full-Zip Jacket from Patagonia is soft, breathable and ultralight, the Houdini Full-Zip is take-it-anywhere weather-resistant protection for every high-output endeavor. Now you see it, now you don't. Just like the sun on blustery days, Patagonia's ultralight, ultrapackable Houdini Full-Zip Jacket can shed fickle weather and then disappear when the skies clear. It's also breathable enough to keep on as you crank through the next squall. The textured triple-ripstop nylon fabric proves surprisingly tough while the Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish wards off flurries six pitches from the deck. The redesigned hood is lower volume and snugs around the face and head three-dimensionally with a new, single-pull system. The Houdini has a drawcord hem and stuffs into its own chest pocket, which now has a secure zipper closure and a burly strong carabiner clip-in loop."

From Backcountry.com:
"By some kind of ultralight softshell magic, the Patagonia Men's Houdini Full-Zip Jacket appears out of nowhere on blustery, misty days, and vanishes back into your pack when the skies clear. This featherweight nylon ripstop shell has a DWR coating to shed light moisture and a fully adjustable hood to protect your dome. When the sun reappears, the Houdini's front chest pocket doubles as a stuff sack and has a reinforced carabiner loop for easy clipping to your harness."

From Tahoe Mountain Sports:
"Patagonia Men's Houdini Full Zip Jacket is a breathable and ultralight water resistant jacket that packs down as small as an egg | Made from 15-denier triple ripstop nylon with a DWR weather-resistant coating, this jacket will keep you dry enough during the shortest of deluges or prolonged showery weather | Packs into its internal chest pocket and has a draw cord hem around the waist | Subtle, slightly transparent appearance"

Men's Houdini Full-Zip
Reviewed by Jon Howard, May 31, 2008

"Best backpacking jacket I've ever owned. I am trying to go lighter and this one fits the bill. It is super light, compressible. It is everything it says it is in the description. It folds into nothing in its own built-in pocket. It repels rain, but is not completely waterproof; if you wear layers though, which most packers usually do, this is no problem."
