The camera can also capture movies at VGA resolution at an
incredible 300 frames per second, which means it can record
movies for replay in ultra-slow motion, a function that has only
been possible so far with a limited range of professional movie
equipment.

Considering the technical problems in doing that, the camera is pretty
amazing. Doing it at a reasonable price is even more amazing.


It it's ever made available at *any* price it'll also be amazing.
Many prototypes aren't even intended to become future products. It
this one sees the light of day as a real product it'll probably be
no sooner than 2009. It's still a very interesting gadget, or as
you said, pretty amazing, and it doesn't use a Gatling lens/sensor
array!
