Hehe, yea I get the DNA40 still meets most peoples needs, it does meet my needs also most of the time (90% of my vaping is at 13w in wattage mode LOL).
But although it's a nice chipset it does lag behind both in price and performance compared to the current chipsets. No TCR, only Ni200 in TC, no firmware upgrade, and 40watts is pretty low end compared to what is out there right now. Even compared to mods that only cost $25.
So not a chipset I would put in a high end (and expensive) device anymore. For this price most people expect more. (even if they don't use it LOL).
So I fully understand the switch to more modern chipsets, and I am happy about it.
I also think it a counterfit remedy, as the current DNA40 chipset is cloned big time, which makes counterfitting the current model too easy (which we all have seen, and probably hurt the sales of the Xvo big time, which could also be a reason to discontinue it).
It would be a lot harder to counterfit the Yihi chipset (at least I have seen no clones off those yet, even of the older yihi chipsets).
I just sincerly hope they will also produce a mod with a smaller chipset that has a smaller form factor....if it could be even smaller than the Xvostick I am all for it!! The Ystick is a bit bulky, and the Xvostick form factor is just perfect.

I would like to see the "star platt board" inside of an Xvostick or smaller. Hint, hint
Definitely SOLETE in MY world as well.
And a +1 on the XVOschtick as THE best of the styles you've made, Mini Ecig.
Chels finished assembling of the first sample of the YStick and prepared a review. He shows it in use: in both right and left hands, different grips.
You'll see the connector, the buttons with nice clicky sound and internals of the mod.

ProYStick is also in progress. Bodies are ready, see more photos on our site.
We recommend Merkava atomizer for YStick and ProYStick. Chels optimized the production and you can buy it for only $50.
The last batch is completely sold out but we plan a new batch.
Please subscribe for Merkava stock updates so that we know how many items to produce.

Looking good @LittleDonkey! But I guess the 11th april shipping date won't be met (obviously 
)......can we count on the 26th shipping? (or maybe a little sooner for the first batch LOL )

where do you find that info? Can't located it under "my orders" or "my account".
And could you relate your order number to see if mine is after or before?
(mine is 6105)edit: oh now I see you ordered the ProY...I ordered the normal Y's
under "view your order history"
click the view icon (second icon from the right)
My order is #6160

Thanks Kat! Also getting excited....very curious how the device will feel in the hand.
Bit weird that there is an update on the ProYsticks (at least the descrtiption with the pictures mentions it's the Proysticks that have been anodized) but not on the Ysticks...it was my understanding that the regular Ysticks were being produced first....so that would imply they already have been anodized......any comments on this @LittleDonkey??
The shipment of the first batch of YSticks is started, and the next batch will be ready by the end of this month. We were going to ship it earlier but we had some problems with the chips.Looking good @LittleDonkey! But I guess the 11th april shipping date won't be met (obviously
ProYSticks were slightly delayed at anodizing and the first batch will be ready next week, 20 of April. We have informed ProYStick buyers about this delay.
I am very sorry for delay, we do our best to ship orders as soon as possible but we prefer to delay rather then ship bad quality products.
Very good to hear @LittleDonkey!! As I pre-ordered at the very first stage I hope I made the first batch
F5-ing my order status LOL...
Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the support @Katdarling and @DPLongo22 !! Unfortunatly no shipping news yet
As they started shipping 5 days ago...I am wondering if I made first batch...I should certainly hope so, as I still had the very first $159 offer.....guess we'll wait and see If no news next week, I'll drop them a mail, not that I'm impatient...ooh noo 
Hope they ship next week so they can arrive before I have to leave to your end of the world....(going to the States (Madison Wisconsin) on a business trip the 8th of may, see how things are going in your neck of the Woods LOL
