Looks interesting, does not give much information and how it works, also a bit pricy.
I think I would stick with the CSG.

Just about to ask the same question-nearly two years after Phil!!!
Mentioned in a BBC article today: http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/0/23001464

Sorry if link doesn't work :oops:

I think these things are designed to give a quick squirt of smoke for "on the fly" treatment just before serving, not for long term infusion.
Curing is not an exact science... So it's not a sin to bin.

Saw one being used by Turan at his cold smoking course. Sounds really clever for giving a smokey lick to seafood and chicken dishes after/during cooking. Smoked mussels, for example, would be awesome. I can't currently justify the price given the amount of times I'd be likely to use it, but I bet one will end up in my gadget cupboard at some point.

I do like, however, the fact that it looks like something that engineering students at university would come up with, with no culinary intentions.
