Notified to me today in a mailing from Vogue, and judging by this:

if that's not a rebadged Brother, then I'm a Dutchman.  My own 17 year old Brother has almost identical stitch and control functions, including the crocodile motif DS so loved when he was tiny!

I received an email from SewDirect and yep, it looks live a re-badged Brother to me.  It is being demonstrated on Create and Craft tomorrow from 10am, so we can get the low down then.
