The technology behind them isn't groundbreaking, but I can think of some good uses for devices like this.

Basically it appears to be a combination of noise cancelling and directional microphones so that you hear more of what you're pointed towards. If you want to get a better feel for how these devices could work, I'd recommend taking a look into directional microphones.

I'm not saying the technology isn't useful, but this has been done before. It hasn't worked before, so when it appears at the top of HN I assumed (given the higher standards we usually apply here) there was a reason beyond an okay marketing website with vague details. Which I didn't expect from Bose (which in my mind == quality and the website wasn't) nor the top of HN.
