    We haven’t heard from crap gadget vendor Thanko in a while, but they are back: This time, the Tokyo-based company presents a keyboard with a built-in heater and cooler [JP]. That means the keyboard will not only keep your hands warm during those cold days in winter but it’s also useful during the summer.

    Amazing stuff. Obviously Thanko used all their engineering power to create an upgrade of this USB cooler keyboard.

    Buyers will need 2 USB ports (one for the cooling fan/heater and one for the keyboard itself). Expect the keyboard to be listed in Thanko’s English online shop soon (price in Japan: $50).
