>>>I'm not saying there aren't uses of PFI, i'm just saying that there are situations where it's not necessary. If its instant traffic you want, why not pay per clicks? Depending on the site you could buy quite a lot of clicks with the inclusion fee. <<<

If you are in a very competitive market, you would be lucky to get 50-100 clicks for the amount you pay for PFI for 1 year. I agree that you definitly need to have links, but IMHO I can't see how paying $39 to guarantee spidering for 1 year is a bad thing.
I would also recommend SEO on the PFI page (as well as your entire site) to make sure you maximize your sites ability to rank high.
