I actually bought Diaspora and Axiomatic while still within the first few chapters of Permutation City because I liked it so much. That was on the tail end of a sci-fi binge though, and I haven't read Diaspora yet, or much sci-fi since. Next time I feel like it though, I know I've got a very good backlog waiting for me.

Here's hoping I don't want to finish his other novels either :)

Permutation City's ending is actually quite uplifting. Has a very Star Trek-like "To boldly go where no man has gone before" feel to it.

On the other hand, I wouldn't blame you for not wanting to finish Diaspora. Although its opening chapter is fantastic.
