Logitech´s exclusive ChillStream Technology includes a built-in 40 mm fan that circulates up to 3.41 cubic feet of air every minute, while generating very little noise. Because of the fan´s compact size, Logitech can deliver the ChillStream feature in a standard-size controller. Three narrow vents on each side of the controller push air directly onto the four fingers, the base of the thumb and the palm of the hand — the three areas of the hand that need cooling most. The air stream has three settings — continuous, interval, or off. In the interval mode, the air stays on for 15 seconds, then turns off for 30 seconds. The air vents are recessed from the surface of the controller and rubber linings surrounding the vents are flush with the surface — making the vents barely noticeable to the touch during gaming. It connects via USB to any XP-enabled PC, and will allegedly work with the (eventually) upcoming Vista. The best part is that the controller will likely be quite cheap, at $40.
