You seemed to hit all the big ones!
While I can't give exact answers to all of your questions, I'll try my best.
When will it be available?
No official date has been announced yet, but we encourage you to sign up for our mailing list and you’ll be the first to know when we make the big announcement!
How much will it cost?
The chief objective in developing Spectrom has been color accessibility. That means we want everyone to get their hands on color 3D printing and we are targeting a price that encourages all adventurers.
Which ink cartridges does it use?
We are still ironing out those details.
How do you attach it to your printer?
Our system currently works in conjunction with the printer's extrusion stepper. The bowden tube is also fed directly from our system to the printer.
What printers will it be compatible with?
Our aim is to get our system to the most amount of printers. So far, we have tested on the Robo3D R1 and the Ultimaker 2.

lol so pretty much a work in pregress :-)
oh yes - what if you don't have a bowden setup ?
And will it also be compatible with 1.75mm filament ?

I believe he means a tube between the spectrom machine and your extruder weather or not the extruder has a tube after it. You'll notice that both the machines the Spectrom was tested on use direct extruders rather than Bowden tubes.
If you do have a significant distance between the extruder and the hot end (such as a Bowden tube), then the machine has to account for that extra length, I assume with some calibration process..
