It has been revived.  I was at their booth at SC06 asking about their 
technology.  The website is http://www.spraycool.com.

They offer it for a small set of Tier1 systems (or others for a cost I'm 
sure)

If anyone knows anything I would be interested in feedback as I am 
interested.

Thanks,
Eric
