Wow. What a frustrating website to learn about a product. It took forever to try and figure out what this does and how it works.
The homepage should have a description and a demonstration video.
Instead, it has a vague explanation and the only video that worked (the YouTube videos were set to private) was a video presentation at a conference which took forever to get to an actual demo.
For those that are wondering, apparently you can speak very silently (or not at all) and the computer will pick up what you're trying to say and repeat it louder in a synthesized voice. I think??

I want two of these and Google glass. Seems like a match made in heaven.
Should be able to get Silent Messaging going, straight out of Vernor Vinge's "Rainbows End"

Sorry about that :P If you're curious about the technology, it's called subvocalization and they aren't the only people working on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subvocal_recognition
Subvocal comms? That's straight out of Niven & Pournelle's _Oath of Fealty_

I think what you meant to say is two of these and an Oculus Rift headset.
