Are you looking at the listing from "thanksbuyer"? (it's here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/282124718398)
I only ask because that's who I bought mine from, and only after a number of messages did they even add the note that states that the item doesn't actually ship with the XMOS chip (I wrote the note for them, because it seemed like a start). I've advised them to create new listings for the regular (Tenor TE7022L USB chip) and upgraded (XMOS U8 USB chip), but so far, they haven't.
I will say that the regular version (which is what they sent) sounds great in my office system, but I AM left wondering what the upgraded version sounds like! I just wanted you to know which version you're actually getting. If it's 140 bucks, it's probably not the upgraded one! Good luck!
