I've seen this chip cooler on youtube a few times, but seems like it hasn't come out on any products yet. Hopefully it's not just vaporware, because it looks super cool.
The issue with solutions like this is the amount of power draw they require for the cooling potential. In non-battery powered ultra slim devices that have a low power draw. They may have a market, but they also cost a lot so that tends to be industrial applications that can absorb the cost and don’t have high thermal load.
That is why the demo is with a MacBook Air and they need to use three of them.
