Your Laptop Gets Hot? This Keeps Your Lap Cool.



Notebook Cooler by Swissgear

Sometimes you just need a simple accessory for your laptop. Nothing big. Nothing fancy. Nothing overpriced. That's why we like this notebook cooler from Swissgear, which the company introduced here at CES last night. This cooling mat for 14-to-17-inch notebook computers has two built-in fans and an exhaust system that prevents overheating and keeps your thighs from getting hot, too, if you happen to have your machine sitting on your lap.

It comes in black and pink and has a slick Swiss Army type design scheme. We like the 19-ounce light weight, the non-skid rubber tear drops, and the whole tray expands and contracts to your computer's depth and width. A USB cable draws power from the computer and slips into a storage compartment when not in use.

Price is $34.99 and should hit store shelves soon.

It's nice when design and function come together in a product like this. We're keeping our eyes and ears open for more great accessories as we prowl the show floor here in Las Vegas.
