Software Noise Cancellation?

Posted by Cliff on from the watch-out-for-the-feedback dept.

DangerTenor asks: "As I flew around the world, lusting after my coworker's $300 BOSE Quiet Comfort Noise-cancelling headphones, I looked down at my laptop computer and noticed the built-in microphone. Has anyone written or considered writing software to run noise-cancellation based on the built-in mic?"
