    Yonex USA internet dept will not have any instruction and/or info on new racquets (ARC line) till 3/2008. I will be surprised if they can get the update ready by the end of 4/2008.

    Yeah, those lazy butthead in the marketing who give the new marketing material to the stupid web master of YY web site in US. Trust me, they are that slow and stupid.

    Also it is like the MI6 in UK, it does not exist...

    Example, I got my ARC7s 1 month before they send out the ad brocher to distributer.

    well, they all play with a at900Power, or ns9000X...so there's not much too discuss there :p

    and the arc10 rumor...Thinking about the source, it's more likely to be an estimated guess (arc10 doesn't sound bad, and is pretty logical)...
    If yonex comes out with an arc9 they'll just say the arc10 will come later:eek:

    The CH arc saber 7 is already out in china's market.The price is around 1500 rmb,b4 discount.I've hold it for a while.It's quite stiff,n the head is still balance.The colour is fine..but i don't really like it.I'd still prefer to have the Ti10 new colour.

    From calculating the 1500 RMB, that's almost like a rip off because that's about the price of a JP!

    SP coded Arc 7 is only around HK$1,050 and Ti-10(new version) is HK$780, both with strings included. Shipping to China will be cheap too!:cool:

    Hi all, here is my review of my ArcSaber 7 JP which i brought at RM 750(USD214) at Penang Malaysia.

    21x23 lbs ngb95(came with the racket), 4 knot with 21 string.

    At first i tried it for just one hour, it feel awkward and powerless which make me feel sad that it doesnt perform as i expected but anyhow i play again today for 3 hours and now i begin to like the racket alot now. The control is great, the shuttle accelerate fast when hitting it for clearing and backhand, the drop shot is amazing too. About the power, it feel soo good, i personally think this racket is very good in power too when you hit at the correct way. If you feel the racket soul, you be its master and obey you hahaha.

    Power = 8
    Control = 9.5
    Drop Shot = 9
