Both HRO and Universal Radio are now taking orders for the new Icom ID-51A 2m/440 D-STAR HT, although it appears that they don't quite have them in stock at this time. The price is $649.
Here is a copy of the listed specs:
Compact Dual Bander
The 26.4mm slim body contains 5W output, VHF/UHF dual bands, a rich D-STAR and integrated GPS receiver feature set.
Independent AM/FM Receiver
FM, AM and shortwave broadcast stations can be listened to, while using the dualwatch function for monitoring ham bands. When a ham band signal is received, the broadcast station is automatically muted.
Automatic Position Reply Function (DV mode)
When receiving a call addressed to your call sign, this function automatically transmits your current position information. If the radio loses the GPS signal, the last position information with date and time information can be sent.
V/V, U/U, V/U Dualwatch
The ID-51A/E receives two bands simultaneously including in the same band*.
* When DV modes are set in main and sub bands, sub band audio will be muted.
