Now listed on the Bintel website at $1599. Says first production run expected in April.

$1599 seems a reasonably good price considering it includes a tripod. I'm assuming the price reflects the current exchange rate, but not sure.
Bintel are also listing an optional encoder kit for $549.
If I didn't already have my DSV-3 I'd be all over this one.
