    What do you folks think of this Notebook Cooler from Antec?

    I don't want to take up an extra USB port. I'd also like to avoid the extra noise of cooling fans. However, I'd like to keep my baby cool. Any thoughts or suggestions would be great.

    I was just about to post a thread like this. My new R3 gets pretty hot and want a REALLY good cooling pad. I don't mind fans, I just want one to keep it cool. Money isn't that important if the product is superior!

    I recommend the Notepal U2. It has 2 fans and the wire still allows you to have a free usb port. You can position the fans anywhere you want, or you can remove them completely. There is the U1 and U3 as well, with 1 or 3 fans.

    I would recommend Zalman NC3000; big fan (220mm) with 620-720rpm.

    I recently bought HP DV5T Laptop for college. I purchased the laptop with the 12 Cell Battery instead of the standard 6 Cell Battery.
