Have you seen the price of the filament yet? The article I read recently said that was yet to be determined. It does seem pretty limited on material usage though.

The design of the EKOCYCLE Cube is based on 3DSystems' own Cube series, specifically the Cube 3 that costs $999 and is set to start shipping later this month. The main difference is that the EKOCYCLE Cube will only print in the special partially recycled filament.
"3DSystems and will.i.am were really passionate about the idea of a 3D printer where all you could do was EKOCYCLE...It's kind of about the lifestyle," Reichental told us. She added that 3DSystems has no current plans to do make a printer that can use both recycled and standard filament, though she left open the possibility in the future.
