Ugh!!!! I want my SX!!!!!!
sent using a sonic screwdriver
Yeah me too
I spoke with Eachely again last night and they are still waiting, but they are hopeful they will receive the chips this week ... lets all keep our fingers crossed. In the meantime, I am getting the SX Yosen, which I would do regardless though. Even as anything SXK and electronics made makes me nervous, I HAVE TO KNOW if it is any good. I wished they would have put some more neutral colored fabrications in the mix though .. So the wood SX is still the one I really want.
I took the pictures from their facebook profile ... today Yosen posted the new ones ...
I'm still for the yellow one

Yeah Carol sent me the new one's over skype last night. I had actually copied and pasted the one you posted on my FB and Carol sent me a pm and asked me to delete it and wait for these new pics instead ... Not sure why though because they all say SX Yosen
Whatever ...You are correct, it is not removable .. which I don't mind really. I am not worried about the chip at all, we know from the Eachely version that its a good chip. I am worried about their ASSEMBLY SKILLS ;-)
You guys/gals sure? In that pic it looks like the two to the left are upside down and that's the 510, no? Check the buttons screens on them. I could be wrong!
Edit: NVM... Looks like they use a similar piece for the 510 and door. Wonky looking lol.
I agree, I would not be bothered if the sleeve is not removable, one thing that does concern me though, seeing all different pictures, the swirl design will be different on every mod, so it is a bit of pot luck to if you get a swirl design you like, for example, really like the blue one in the 1st picture, but not so hot for the blue in the 2nd picture, but I guess that will be the gamble need to decide on taking or not.

Yes I am sure .. Yosen confirmed it two days ago.
And yes, the battery cap and 510 are the same style, which is kinda confusing when you look at their pics ... Yosen Creations, I love it 
I just noticed the difference in appearance ... I hope you get the swirl pattern you like though Nailzy

This may have already been discussed, but is the SX Zero 50W mod from FC a authentic Yihi chip?

That will also depend on a vendor getting it that I want to buy it from though

Yes, I know you are picky King Seed
yes it was discussed, please read between the lines
.. Its so funny that you ask this now, because I just came here to post that for our own benefit, it is best that we stop discussing the authenticity of this chip because it is creating problems for the manufacturers of these mods. It is supposed to be sold as a clone chip or self made chip, and we all need to do is just go along with it, with a wink and smile. Yosen has said its their own chip, I just spoke to SXK who when asked is also saying they made the chip themselves (insert wink and smile).
Yup, in house made chips with conveniently the same .1v over-voltage battery indicator...its a common problem when developing these chips, just a coincidence *wink nod* 
Aww so that is no nice of you to say hun, and thanks for coming out of lurk mode to comment
.. Believe me, my drive for information is an affliction of sorts, so I am happy that anyone can benefit from my disorder. True story, My mother has said since that from the time that I was able to talk that my favorite questions were "Why and Who said?"
Ok so .. I have just confirmed that the Yosen SX is indeed a solid acrylic body insert (as Dravell stated), and a stainless steel frame. Now my question is to anyone who has experience with this material, is acrylic as the material bad? 
I am not really familiar with acrylic as a material used in construction of anything, and when I googled marbled acrylic I received a lot of returns for kitchen and bathroom stuff .. so I don't know what to think about it. Anyone?

It should be fine, reasonaby tough. Mostly comes down to the look. If it's your thing, go for it. Myself, I think it looks a bit... cheap.
A marbley type look is easily achieved through brass or copper patina, way more detailed, and much nicer looking, IMO.
