There are a few services which guarantee inclusion of Press Release in Google News. Has anyone ever tried such service? What are the benefits of getting a PR published in Google News, except a few visitors for a few days?

It's actually really worth it as many blogs/sites syndicate Google News content, which means you'll get a few extra backlinks for your site.
Agreed. Much like how websites always try to get on Digg for the same reason.
Although I'd be interested in seeing how a service could guarantee inclusion when there are some things Google News probably wouldn't accept. If anyone knows how this works I'd love to hear it :)
For some reason I think that Google itself would frown on such a service and those who did follow this route would be penalized in some way
I would say that it's worth it. I usually write a press release about new site, submit it to prweb.com and get it in Google News and on a bunch of other sites...this gives you the "authority" or "trust" to get better rankings.
