Possible New Bike

[Ryo69]

Is anyone familiar at all with Fuji bikes?  I know that the have a touring bike that is pretty inexpensive that is supposed to be decent, but I'm looking at a different one.  My LBS has a Fuji Newest 4.0 for $389.00(list is $480.00).  It's a good looking bike, and it would be a heck of a lot better than what I'm currently riding.  I wondered if it would be up to the task of light touring.  For that price, I could almost afford to have it as a road bike only, but I'd like to be able to tour with it a bit.  

BTW-it has shifters that are on the frame instead of the bars(which keeps down the cost).  That's really the only glaring difference than some of the other bikes that I've been looking at(Giant OCR, Cannondale SR500, Trek Pilot 1.0)

Any help would be appreciated!!
