I actually e-mailed the manufacturers of one of the neurohelmets ages ago and this is what he told me back then:
Hi Defender,
We have a lot happening right now – so our email replies are a bit slow.
The sensor bands are sold through our distributor Infusion Systems. Here is the direct link to the headband page:
http://infusionsystems.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/176.
Infusion provides some software for developing your own apps.
In terms of speed – the brainwave link is slow because the signals we get off the scalp are low frequency – in the 10 to 30 Hz range.
The other sensor bands that we offer, such as the Bioflex, are faster and would compete with standard mouse functions. However this is a new gesture based controller and requires a learning curve – like the mouse.
These controllers are great for interactive immersion – where you participate in a simulation environment. They are not so good for simply replacing existing mouse, joystick, and keyboard functions.
Hope this helps with your quest.
Best,
Hugh

This was back in november when I asked some questions. I wonder how good the one that's going to be released for $300 at the end of the year will be...
