Tricky.

They, from my understanding, talk about two different technologies.

1. A new heat spreader, which I am having trouble picturing in my mind.

2. Jet impingementation using thousands of micronozzles, which has been around for a while but never been practical. I remember reading about it in a discussion about the more exotic cooling ideas late last year.

EDIT:
Some pics.
