Netbooks seem to have broken from their once niche market and are selling like Tickle Me Elmos from past Christmases. The sub-notebooks do tend to lack storage capacity and some can get a little toasty though. Those two dilemmas are what the Coolpad tries to solve.

Lets keep this simple, eh? The Coolpad obviously, as the name implies, keeps the little netbooks cool with integrated cooling fans. Great, but the 2.5-inch SATA HDD slot and 3 port USB hubs are welcomed additions to the paltry netbook specs. When you and your lil’ netbook hit home base, slap it on this dock and with a plug of a USB cable, you have more storage and a cooler notebook. Best of all, the Coolpad will be available from GeekStuff4U.com on December 24th, 2008. No word on price yet though.
