Yowzers, that thing is motoGP expensive, but pretty cool technology.

I didn't find any prices, but it's a moot point as the AP MCs are too big. The "effective bore" of the one TG linked is 16-19mm, with an actual bore of 19mm. Mike's has an "effective bore" of 17-20mm, with an actual bore of 22mm.
Don't fix it if it ain't broke!

indeed, that diameter range is more 4 piston per caliper (x 2 calipers) applications....

I noticed that, and I thought TG already referred to it with his superbike comment. But thanks for pointing it out to futures readers.
