I spoke to one of the Tilera guys a few years back about evaluating their boards for use in a telco project I was working on at the time, but gave up because I wasn't prepared to drop $15K on a development board just to evaluate it.
The technology itself was extremely interesting, though, and would probably have been a good fit for what I was doing. Also, the cost of the dev board included technical support and from speaking to the guy, I got the impression that they actually help you port your code to their platform.
