Default climbing strawberry

I just had an email from gardenbargains.com, about "The world's first
climbing strawberry". 10 runners for £9.99.
It's not a site I'm familiar with and went in my Spam folder via
Spamfighter.
It says "Mount Everest is a unique strawberry producing long runners
which can be trained up a trellis."
This makes me wonder whether one could try this with any strawberry
plant, training runners up something. After about 3 years all should
be fruiting but what then, when the parent plant has done its job.
Does anyone know about it? Is there anything really "new" about this
strawberry.
