Details on PERM is still awaited - based on previous discussions PERM should be able to ceritfy cases in around 20 days (though if it is computerised I wonder what takes so long!!).

PERM is not yet implemented, it is currently under OMB review, so you cant apply under PERM.

PERM regulations are more stringent than regular LC or RIR. if PERM is passed and you want to transfer your case to PERM you will have to redo the whole application process (posting ads. ...).

it is still a mystery on when it will be passed. the biggest problem is the government's unwillingness to expedite the process. even if perm is passed and you can get LC quickly you could easily get stuck in the I-140/I-485 process due to the huge amound of applicants who get their LC immediately. So the key is the WILLINGNESS of the government to clear the backlog. PERM itself will not solve the problem just as concurrent filing (it is just a way for the government to fool the applicants not a way to solve the problems).
