They demoed some impressive technology at IRI that would make talking to your CAN-enabled Jaguars a snap.
Also, I think all Jaguars are CAN enabled, even the kits items from last year. Can anyone verify this?

Anthony, Jaguars have always been CAN enabled even last year. Teams were just not allowed to use the CAN interface.
Attached is a picture of the 2CAN. It will be released shortly. The price will also be announced shortly but I will say it has more features, more power and is cheaper than the Chicklet(129.99). The pricing is for FIRST teams only, as this device has many applications outside of FIRST. The web site has not been updated to show any information about the 2CAN. It will be updated soon and will have links to firmware updates, user manual and example drivers for the cRIO and possibly a link with live video stream that users may control motors over the internet with. The picture does not show dimensions. They are 3" x 2.5". this does not include the mounting tabs which make the overall 3.25" instead of 2.5". It is smaller than Jaguar but bigger than a Victor.
