We study a model of the dark energy which exhibits a rapid change in its
equation of state w(z), such as occurs in vacuum metamorphosis. We compare the
model predictions with CMB, large scale structure and supernova data and show
that a late-time transition is marginally preferred over standard Lambda-CDM.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure, to appear in the proceedings of XXXVIIth
