Price has gone up but I understand it now covers both parents if you're male, and has improved. On sale for $159.95 plus $10 shipping to Canada. I've been meaning to order this for a while and finally got around to it. It seems Sunday evenings my credit card comes out for some reason. Other interesting things for sale too. I like maps.

What’s the difference between the Geno 2.0 test and the previous test?
The first-generation Genographic Project Participation Kit gave participants the choice to trace either their maternal or their paternal results but not both (only males can test their Y chromosome since women do not carry one). Results determined each person’s haplogroup, or ancient line of descent, at a relatively low level of genetic resolution. The Geno 2.0 test leverages what we learned from the first phase of the Genographic Project to give participants in Geno 2.0 a much richer and more clear picture across their genome of their genetic makeup and ancestry. The new test analyzes thousands of markers on both the Y chromosome and mtDNA, providing the richest levels of genetic and geographic resolution for these lineages.
