There is a new chart in the ISOGG Wiki comparing the various Y-SNP tests that are now on the market for deep ancestry and SNP discovery:

We have the first report on results from the Full Genomes full Y-chromosome test:

Family Tree DNA announced the launch of their new Y-SNP product known as the Big Y at their conference this weekend:
