Hi this is John from Shapeways. It's awesome to see all this great feedback for Shapeways. To answer a few questions:
currently accepted formats for the Shapeways service include STL, Collada, X3D. The objects can be created in White Strong & Flexible (SLS), Cream Robust (FDM), White Detail and Transparent detail (both Objet); color and additional materials will soon follow.
Best,
Shapeways Team
