Meade Deep Sky Imager

Is anyone using Meades new Deep Sky Imager? I am currently using an unmodified Toucam 740k and am considering adding the DSI to my Christmas list. In paticular I would like to know if this would be a good upgrade if I want to continue to image the planets, and add some deep sky stuff. How does the chip size/capabilities compare to the Toucam? It looks like the shutter speed is flexable enough to do planetary imaging as well as deep sky, would anyone dissagree with that statement?

Thanks in advance
