For MPI communication you might look at interactive supercomputing. Their product, Star-P, provides a bridge between MATLAB and clusters. It looks pretty cool (I've seen a demo).
Star-P does look pretty nice. For now, though, ISC is not selling Star-P directly, but only via resellers (mainly SGI) and only for Altix.
As for Clearspeed and MATLAB, I'm sure they are talking. One of the bottlenecks is getting a complete BLAS/LAPACK library that is tuned for the hardware. Then you could use the Clearspeed card for computing. As other people have mentioned, the other bottleneck is getting data to and from the card.
They claim (on the PDFs on the site) to already have Level 3 BLAS and FFTW working, both of which Matlab uses.
