The San Francisco-based company Novel Concepts has developed what it dubs "IsoSkin" wherein two pieces of plastic are separated by just 500 microns, but vaccuum filled with a coolant (most likely water) to relocate heat away from the processor to cooler parts of the device. The patents for the technology were obtained recently, and a prototype is expected within the year, devices hitting retail store shelves in two. For more information read over at ZDNet.
