Oh, yeah, I had forgotten that Barrie Kovish (bmk@ds*.bc*.ca*) had sent me 
info on that rebreather as well.  The brochure is scanned and up on my 
rebreather www page as "http://diver.ocean.washington.edu/bmisp1000.html".

According to the sales blurb, the SeaPak 1000 (formerly the CCR-1000) is
$10,000, with $3,500 due on placement of order, $3,500 upon completion of
training with your unit, and balance of $3,000 within 30 days after
shipment.  The cost of mandatory training is separate.

There is a review of the BMD SCR-4 at 
"http://www.florida.net/scuba/mfg/rebreath.html#start" that includes lots 
of nice pictures of it in use.
