 There is a new style to the balsa floats and some new colours for the foam ones. http://www.dnefishingtackle.com/floats.

Hmm - not sure, those floats look like the ones that came out a couple of years ago.  I like them, but they break easily (e.g. if you break off a fish and your float flies back and strikes a rock, it will break easily).  I find Drennans to be more durable that way.  Not an issue with foam floats..

DNE foam floats are tough to beat in terms of price/performance.
For fast or snaggy water where I might loose floats I use DNE foam floats, and Drennan for slower or safe water use as I don't like loosing them.

Well, I don't now if it's just me, but i don't see anything new here. I have been using these floats in the links previously posted for the last 2 seasons.... usually use the foam, about to try out one of the balsa floats myself... all in all the DNE floats are pretty nice.
