    I actually have this cooler because the reseller I bought from in Taiwan included this with my notebook. It's a generic brand, but it looks strangely familiar to a spire cooler that can be found on newegg. It actually works suprisingly well for something that looks so cheap, my W3V idles in the low 40s instead of mid to high 40s without it. The ebay model runs backward compared to mine though; mine sucks in air from beneath the laptop and blows the hot air up

    Thanks for the information. I would like to buy it, but I don't seem to trust this user from ebay, and I don't know what key words to search for this item. The only alternative that I can see is the Spire notebook cooler. Would this item be a worth alternative? I read a review where an inspiron 600m was deemed unstable on this product...and thats a small notebook too.
