I'll just wait till next year after they've miniturized the fan and the Chinese sell it for 1/3rd of the price... |

| What a unbelievably inefficient and wasteful invention. Seriously, the amount of energy that takes up would be so much higher than just getting an air conditioner for your office and fixing the insulation. Blah. |

It's likely that those little fans use far less energy than it would take to air condition an entire apartment, let alone house. They look ridiculous, though. |
