A look at Audience technology.

Audience, a company that has delivered noise-canceling technology to Apple's iPhones since 2008, thinks it might be left out of the fun in the iPhone 5.
Speaking to Reuters in an interview published last night, the company's CEO Peter Santos said that "the normal course of business led us to believe that our technology is not likely to be enabled in Apple's next-generation mobile phone." Santos didn't say what the "course of business" was. He also broke the news to the company's shareholders.
Apple and Audience's partnership was revealed earlier this year when the company filed paperwork for an initial public offering. In the iPhone 4, Apple included a dedicated Audience chip, but in the iPhone 4S, it integrated the company's "EarSmart" technology directly into the A5 processor.
