Does anyone know about these yet. Are they in the stores? What do you think of them?

Mine arrived a couple of weeks ago and, after running a few workouts and tempos in them, I have to proclaim that they are THE best flats I have ever worn. I've even ordered another 2 pairs because they're limited edition and I've simply fallen in love with them. The sole feels lovely and cushy and the upper fits just like a sock. Due to the fact that they're so light, when you run it feels as if you are running with just a strip of foam on the bottom of your feet, you don't notice you're wearing trainers at all; the fit's so snug. The toebox is very narrow (similar fit to the Nike Skylons)so it might not suit everyone's foot, but if you like Nike's fit then these should be heaven. I would thoroughly recommended getting a pair...
How do they compare to the Zoom RS? The sole looks much the same. It was a super huge hassle but I ordered a pair to a buddies address in the states and he's bringing them to Canada this weekend.
i love my pair. very very cushy and very light. i wouldn't consider it a racing flat but it is a nice lightweight trainer, probably a good shoe for 1/2 and full marathons.
don't even compare them to the RS. the RS is a gimmmick and a horrible shoe, the jasari is actually a good running shoe. (i was scepticle[sp?] at first)
It looks like it may be similar to the Mizuno Wave Precision?
How would you compare the fit of the Skylon to the Haywards? I know it's basically the same shoe, but I've read that the Skylon is narrower and also read that's it's a little wider.
How light are they? I train in flats and I will need to replace my heavier pair (currently Brooks Racer ST3s) in a few weeks. Are these shoes minimal but solid enough to run trails/somewhat rocky terrain?
The midsole for the Jasari is the exact same as that of the RS. They are actually very good on trails due to the outsole waffle design which yields a high amount of traction. Overall I'd say they are great for a biomechanically efficient individual who wants something light but cushioned for half/full marathon training, or for the flats crowd here on a day when they need a little extra padding.
For anyone who is curious I just checked and they weigh 8.4 oz.
How do they fit compared to their spikes? I wear, comfortably, 10's for the miler, lanang and most of their trainers. Do these fit pretty similarlly or do they run big or small?
Thanks
Heel/forefoot drop?
Firmness?
How do they compare to Streak XC and Marathoner?
