USB Mask - Version 2.0

When I first saw this gadget I was wondering if it was just a late April Fool's joke, then realized that it said version 2 and that meant there was an original. Yes, the USB Mask 2 (warning: Japanese) is now available from Thanko. The mask utilizes bus power to provide airflow while using a paper mask to aid in breathing clean air. The fans supposedly help eliminate the hot moist air that make wearing the mask so uncomfortable.

The new mask seems to make you look a bit less like Jason wearing his hockey mask, but still keeps you tethered to your desk as it doesn't have any rechargeable batteries to let you leave the desk. At least the fan speed is adjustable so you don't always have to feel like there is a hurricane in your face.
