What ever happened to MEMS fans?

Cost vs cooling efficiency isn't there yet. Maybe it gets better after a few more years of research, maybe it hits a dead end like thermoelectric pads, hard to say without insider knowledge.

I did some more googling, seems like at best it can deliver 6 watts of cooling for each watt... not sure how they'll bridge that gap without something remarkable in material science and manufacturing, the commercialisation in a different sector
