This is a really nice method of preparing drinking water in the wilderness or at least when you are on a hiking tour for several days!
It is debatable whether this filtered water really tastes good - he didn´t looked very overwhelmed but in times of need it would be a helpfull :)

Hehe :o) Thats true! But I think Philipp is right. Important is that this bottle is able to save lives with clean and absolutely sterilized water. And really effective is the price. Its not that expensive and compared to the 'normal prices' for water in Columbia for example the 'water seller' and the 'water buyer' will save money. I think it is a really good business model and improvement of living conditions as well for the inhabitants of the affected countries.
And furthermore in some countries it is already tested. Here you can have a look at a clip of Haiti's Waters:
