The idea has been a round for a while. A patent was issued in 1998. You can buy an electrically warmed keyboard within a month. see www.warmkeyboard.com. The keyboard will be UL listed and safe. A warm mouse will be available near the end of 2005. warmheart, 2/21/2005 |

Many laptops use the keybard as a heat sink of sorts. |

Maybe I missed an inside joke somewhere, but what's with all the capital Ts? |

Bless you and THANKS, warmheart !!!

$50 for a heated keyboard seems a bit steep, doesn't it? |
|
| |
How about just putting the keyboard on top of an electric heating pad / battery warmer / whatever works? |

My fingers burn in the summer, touching my laptop
keyboard. And that's with a Lenovo ideapad. Before
that I couldn't even touch the kb on my HP Pavilion
dv6k. |

What's needed is a COLD kb! |
