I contacted the TCNISO Sales Department yesterday and received a prompt response. I asked about the pinouts for an external chip mod and a guestimate on the shipping of the first pre-orders.
Their "hoping" for "late this week" makes me think the first pre-order batch will ship next week.

Thanks for supporting open source, we are hoping to get all of those
orders shipped late this week. Our current status is waiting for more
components (2313 ICs) that are arriving soon. The wiip uses the same pin
outs as wiinja, that is 1=tx, 2=rx, 3=clk, then vcc and ground.
