It's been available for about three weeks in the U.S.

It makes me wonder how/why Kenwood has been able to get full 5W on 2M, 220, and 440 with their little TH-F6a handheld, while all the other manufacturers cannot get more than a Watt or two on 220 from even their mobile multi-band rigs.

Just played with one for a few minutes a couple weeks ago at HRO-Anaheim. I am not sure if it is true full-duplex, nor how sensitive the sub-band is for us.
