From the pictures I've seen of the rootballs after cultivation, the SR-AP had slightly more root structure than the cloth "air pots"/smart pots, and significantly more root structure than traditional pots. Furthermore, his testing indicated he could get hydroponic-like growth and cultivation, in a soil based container.
Which is why I went ahead and ordered a few. Figured if anything, I won't be out that much, and I can see if they work or not. A poster on another board recommended to root your plants in these, and transplant into regular pots if you live in a very hot climate, which I do, and grow outside (which I do, most of the day).
His recommendations were the 6x4" "starter cell", and the .8gal (5.9x6.3), for starters.

Les - did you order the the .8gal (5.9x6.3) or the 2gal (8.7x9)?
And this is the cheapest place I found for the SR-AP:

Seller has all sizes - some might not be listed on his website. He sells them on eBay as well.
