USB Heating MousePad Keeps you Cozy during X'mas

Thanko's USB Heating Mousepad does look like another offbeat gadget at first sight, but it does seem like it can keep our hand cozy during the coldest days in the Winter. Presumably, the mousepad works the same way to heat up the surface as the USB beverage warmer, and can reportedly reach temperatures ranging from 40 to 45 degrees Celsius It also sports a second USB power connector like the USB Heater Cooler Keyboard from the same company to provide enough juice for heating and the hub operations. We may end up seeing one of these ending up in one of the many Japanese gadget importer websites for twice the MSRP (1980 yen or $20 USD).
