Clips are cropped and you lose some vertical resolution, but get full horizontal. I didn't just autocrop, but did a little reframing too.
Quality is, as you note, pretty good. Not great. But for 210fps and $179, yea, outstanding, really!
I haven't run into any time limits - longest clip I shot on this day was 6m 21s (330 MB). The camera clearly has a large internal buffer and I'm using decent Class 6 SDHC cards (16GB).
Biggest downside is the camera runs through the battery very quickly and I was running out of power after an hour of shooting. Still, extra batteries are always a good idea, they are very small (even though it's proprietary) and, again...$179? Amazing.

This is my (D. Eric Franks) PERSONAL video page and is distinct from my PROFESSIONAL work at videopia.org.* These videos are for friends and family and are likely not very interesting to anyone else, but you are welcome to check them out!
I got my first video camera in 1991 (VHS-C), my first DV camera in 1997 (Sony PC7) and edited my first video in Ulead Media Studio Pro on a 300MHz computer shortly thereafter. My first hard disk was a 13GB SCSI Seagate Barracuda that cost $800, ran at 10,000RPM and sounded like a Cessna. The older videos here were shot from 1991 to 2000, while the newer stuff, is, well, newer.
* Why is this distinction important? Well, because I teach video production and the home videos on this page are generally appallingly amateur. I'm not apologizing for them and think they're great for what they are: home videos shot at the end of the last century with consumer gear and edited on 300MHz computers with 256MB of RAM. I'm not blaming the gear, entirely, and a whole host of bad techniques and poor artistic choices are also on display. Still, I love these videos, and if you are family or friend, you probably will too!
