    There are also ones that have USB 2.0 hubs built into them, but I forget where.

    Anything that puts open air, regardless of fans, between your laptop and the desk is good.

    I have the antec notebook cooler. This does a good job, isn't to loud and doesn't decrease battery life to badly. Just plugs into a USB port and away you go !
