Sunking will have these in stock later in the month, and I was curious if anyone had any information about them. There's a company on ebay that currently has them, and here's what they have to say:

The DGA MACH LITE is a very compact, lightweight, portable basket that offers the same catching area as the Mach III and Mach V baskets!!! It has patented sliding links and a traingular 16 chain configuration that is something new to the industry. It is made of durable high quality material, comes with a durable carrying case and a one year warranty. link. (http://discsunlimited.net/descriptions/DGA%20Mach%20Lite%20descrpt.html)

I'm considering buying a portable basket for my apartment, and due to the my size restrictions, I'm considering this basket as well as the innova traveller and ching skillshot. So anyone that could draw comparison between this new basket and the other two would provide some great insight to my selection.

I'll have one in the next few days, it shipped yesterday. I went with this because the traveler is square and that doesn't seem right, and the ching looks like a hamburger bun, which doesn't seem to work either, I have a bit of a loft to my putt so I can't really throw at the ching in my basement.

The Mach Lite seems like the most logical portable there is, but I'll let you know for sure here soon.

I got my DGA Mach Lite today. This thing is sweet. Nice design, compact, very nice heavy storage/carrying bag. Everything is easy to figure out, and it's very quick to set up. Catches great! Awesome.

What's the word on this basket??? It looks like a way better design than the skillshot, more basket-like. I've seen em on ebay for 140+30ship.

Worth it?

Yes , I have putted on a demo. Has two sets of chains. Larger putting area than the skillshot.

I enjoy using it. It's got a pretty solid build, and I'm working at more lateral change in my putt, so it works well for me. It does let some putts slice through that a mach III would normally catch (in particular hard hyzer putts), but it's teaching me not to throw so hard.
The material it's built out of is kinda questionable (may wear out), but it's got a 1 year warrenty, so if it does, you can send it back.
