I disagree, Viper mode is a very thin imitation of a few Vim commands. Slightly too thin for my liking, even on the most compatible of modes :p
Besides, to really experience the benefits of Emacs you have to dive right in. There are many Emacs features I wish Vim had but I fear many of these diminish in value when taken out of their natural environment. The reverse can also be argued to a lesser extent.

With viper it's almost like not switching :P

Maybe take a look at this then: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Vimpulse but it all really matters how much and which way you use vim.
Oh cool, it'll be interesting to see if that makes a switch more compelling.
