  There has been little information lately - rumors have indicated that the sequence quality has not been satisfactory yet. However, Oxford Nanopore CTO Clive Brown will give a keynote address at the UK Genome Science meeting 2013 (Sept 2-4), and it's possible that selected collaborators have already trialed the technology. If so, we might see some "real world" data soon.

  Recently,the grants -- nearly $17 million to eight research teams -- are the latest awarded through the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI)'s Advanced DNA Sequencing Technology program. The main focus of grants awarded by the National Institutes of Health to the use of nanopore technology aimed at more accurate and efficient DNA sequencing.
  
  "Nanopore technology shows great promise, but it is still a new area of science. We have much to learn about how nanopores can work effectively as a DNA sequencing technology, which is why five of the program's eight grants are exploring this approach," said Jeffery A. Schloss, Ph.D., program director for NHGRI's Advanced DNA Sequencing Technology program and director of the Division of Genome Sciences.

  The current “alpha” version of the Genia consumable contains 264 sensors. The anticipated beta version will contain 100,000 sensors, and the commercial version, about one million. The device will use a DNA polymerase and a sequencing-by-synthesis approach, as in the current paper, but it will use different chemistries.

  Hi Nanopore enthusiast,
   
  For those interested in doing DNA sequencing via your USB port: it is possible to get early access to the Oxford Nanopore MinION system, they now appear to be taking applications. See here for more details:

  Oxford Nanopore announced that it has raised $59 Million (£35 million) from both new and existing investors in the UK, US and mainland Europe. In its last fund raising round in 2013, Oxford Nanopore raised $64 million. These additional funds will allow to accelerate and scale the adoption of our MinION™ devices.
