They are called "Peltier" coolers and they use electricity to provide very low temperature "cold plates". I always thought it was a pretty cool idea myself too.
Without fans, Peltier devices can't do much. The very best ones have a ratio of heat moved to energy applied of around 1. That means that for every watt that the device moves out of the keg, it will have to dissipate at least two watts of heat on the hot side, using a heat sink (with a fan, most likely) or some other means. It's better to just use an ice bath.
