They were at the Orlando Builders Show but I missed their booth.  An article said they have an office in Oregon now.   What do the gurus think of this system?

It's a removeable form on one side w/ permanent form on the inside (a wallboard and insulation sandwich)

Slenzen,
This is not a new concept. Certainteed was pushing a similar system at WOC 2007. The issue I see is you are still having to buy foam for the insulation(typically not as dense and not the same quality as an ICF block) and now you only get it on one side. Plus you have to buy an extreeeeemly expensive forming system that you still have to store, clean, and maintain. I have not been able to come up with any clear advantages.
