I just ordered my new Specialized Myka yesterday. It was down to the Specialized Myka or the Cannondale F7. I'm not too up on the technical stuff, but DH said the Specialized does have much nicer parts. The C comes in pink which was a bonus for me, but we ended up going with the other one due to the better parts, even though DH is a BIG C fan. The sales people also helped out alot. We're good friends with alot of them so they spent a bunch of time with us making sure I was getting the best bike (within our price range). I was able to try out (didn't test ride) the guys F7 in a comparable size and the womens S and the S did feel really nice! The shop did offer to order both bikes so I could try them both out, but we decided on the S due to the better parts and whatever else Dh decided made that one better for me.
