Company files patents for tech that "virtually eliminates" cellphone background noise

Cellular-news is reporting that a company called TechnoConcepts has filed a pair of patent applications for technology that is said to " virtually eliminate background noise in cellular and other communications devices, while vividly improving the voice clarity." Basically the technology, which could either be incorporated into handsets as a stand-alone ASIC chip or integrated directly into their digital signal processors, claims to allow users to chat it up in noisy environments by filtering out the audible schwag while enhancing both audio input and output. Great, just what we need, technology that makes it easier for people to annoy the rest of us in public. According to TechnoConcepts, their tech should be available to rude-talkers worldwide sometime next year.
