Very flat pancake pattern with that much gain in an omni.

They said about 12 dBi gain from that omni which is pretty impressive for an 
omni. I guess if you have enough of them, it won't matter too much. I'm 
guessing these go with little pico-pops in an indoor type environment.

  The one on the right looks like a dielectrically loaded V pol slot antenna.  
(On slots, the slot direction is opposite the polarization).  Similar to a 
collinear coax design.  

  Narrow V pattern, low gain, mm waves, people moving around with super low 
gain antennas in their phones.  Am I the only one that does not think this will 
work well?

  Very cool. The antennas I made for my wisp years ago were all slotted wave 
guides and 1 horn. Easy to make, simple materials, little to nothing to fail. 
These are obviously more advanced combining, those with active components, and 
other techniques, but it's cool to see it.
