    Is there any mouse available that has a hand warming facility? The building I work in gets extremely cold causing my fingers to get very stiff after a couple of hours.

    Of course the warming facility would need to be optional so the mouse is still usable on warm days.

    I've seen mice with a cooling fan built in so I was wondering if the opposite existed.

    Thanks in advance. :)

    it looks good conceptually, but the real problem with low temperatures is the finger area (Im from NE, i should know haha). which i would imagine wouldnt be possible to implement in a mouse since the clickity clacks are where the fingers need to be :/

    Cool, thanks for the link.

    Steggy,

    I figured I could move my fingers to the heated area during the breaks when I'm not actually using the mouse. Right now I just end up making a fist anyway so that has got to be better. :D
