These kind of announcements have been made probably 50 times in the last decade, but we've yet to see any of them put to practical use. Call me when I can actually buy one, until then you might as well announce flying cars.
To me I find the science behind these concept to be interesting. If we only pay attention to the stuff that made it to the market, it would be extremely boring because stuff happens at a very slow pace . It took many years before we finally have SSD, and even then we're still using traditional HDD today.
Not all new ideas will be marketable, but that's how advancement in technology is made. You need to have many researches advancing the frontier of knowledge in all different direction, and then the industry comes in later on and decide which is marketable.
