Intel was able to halve the thickness of the current generation of netbooks with their new Canoe Lake “innovation platform,” which employs thermal cooling for Pine Trail netbooks instead of the traditional fans. The end result: a super-slim form factor that also runs less hot than today's models. It's important to keep in mind that this is just a reference design, and that we're likely a long ways off from actually seeing a 14mm netbook on a Best Buy shelf.
