Here at CNET Asia, we love things which serve more than one purpose. From a laptop case that doubles as a notebook stand to a mouse that is also a wireless presenter, we just go gaga over little stuff like that. Which is why the
Quirky Scratch-and-Scroll caught our eye.
One the surface it looks like just another plastic mousepad. But write on the surface with a stylus or even your fingertips and you'll be able to scribble quick notes to yourself. It works by using little black magnetized particles under the surface which adhere to the transparent top layer when pressure is applied. To erase, lift the top layer and you can start with a clean slate.

This unique mousepad is
available for preorder at its online store for US$9.49, excluding shipping. After this period, the price will revert to US$14.99. However, there is no guarantee that this product will actually hit production lines as the company requires 225 orders before it will manufacture the mousepad. In the event the peripheral is canceled due to lack of interest, fret not as your credit card will not be charged unless the unit loses its vaporware status.
