Anyone tried ScaleForm GFX/GFC?

Upon browsing Gamasutra today, I found a link to a pretty interesting SDK.
The price is unfortunatly not listed, which leads me to believe it's expensive.
Anyone heard of this SDK before and if so, what have you heard?

Scaleform GFx is a lightweight, fast, image and vector graphics animation rendering engine, which is designed to take full advantage of modern 3D graphics hardware, yet be compatible with a wide range of systems and formats.
To compliment the core rendering engine, Scaleform GFx includes several vector file parser components, allowing game developers to create user interfaces with high quality visual authoring tools.

It is basically GameSWF souped up with an anti-aliasing customization.
For TGE, you'd get most of the same functionality from FlashGUI(search the forums)
I'm much more interested in Anark Format SDK, which I'm considering hooking up to TSE.
Cheers!
