I'll send you a couple pods when the big ones ripen if you like. I've created a couple of crosses with this plant and will probably just grow the hybrids next year.
I haven't (yet) tasted a lot of very hot peppers fresh, it's something like an orange hab in heat so far, maybe a little weaker, but I've only had about 4 or so pods ripen... the bigger pods are still getting there. Definitely not as hot as my Orange-Yellow 7.
Pics from today.

I have two red Bhut Jolokia plants grown from CPI seed with very different results:
One is slower growing with fewer pods, but produces the common shape:
The other is a stronger plant and produces many regular and generally smooth pods:

One of the parents on this is a Naga Morich. The pods have been getting large and have interesting shapes:
Another hybrid, Naga Morich x ? (C. frutescens), perhaps Nagasco:
The pods start off upright, but eventually drop down as they grow:
