Yeah I didn't bother to look at the results of this product, I just looked over the pages briefly...
It's really that fast huh?
Yeah I felt the pricing was skewed also - that's a bigg plop of cash just to render something and the resolution is still limited even at the $1000 level.
I guess products like Blowup and Genuine Fractals ( http://www.alienskin.com/blowup/index.html, http://www.ononesoftware.com/detail.php?prodLine_id=2 ) can help a bit but you can imagine after too much up-rez'ing, your gorgeous render is going to devolve into a marsh of jellyfied (larger) pixels no matter how good the algorithms are...
Being ye 'o too many-a-renderer (having Lightwave, XSI, Carrara 5 Pro, Vue 5i, ZBrush etc., I didn't even consider this (need to get more use outta what I got! :-p )
It'll be interesting to see what happens as you mentioned though.
