AA are placing these in fors 16 and 17 to reduce the number of seats down to 150, to allow AA to only crew 738s with 3 cabin crew. Soon to be introduced on all 738s (along with Main Cabin Extra).

To block the seat. 737-800s with MCE installed have 154 seats. Since the FAA requires 1 FA for every 50 pax, middle seats in rows 16 and 17 are blocked to reduce the capacity.
There's a thread on it already somewhere...

OT, but I got yelled at by a FA on a regional flight in India because she thought I was taking a picture of her. My picture (of the seats) managed to get her elbow, I believe.
