After all, that package looks like what, 0.25 ounces? Imagine heating and eating dinner a spoonful at a time... using you're laptop battery... sigh.

For example, I have to go to the break room which is like 50 feet away. Being far too lazy to stand up, rolling there on my office chair is not only a painstaking (and possibly embarrassing) process, but it takes quite some time. In reality, I don't think this would be anything more than a novelty, but it's pretty cool nonetheless! Not everyone has a microwave 5 feet away.

With a maximum draw of 1.8 amps from usb 2.0 my spoonful of beans should only take half an hour or so. That beats the hell out of standing up, walking 5 feet to the real microwave, waiting 30 seconds for a cup of beans to heat, then walking the 5 feet back to my chair. Awesome!

This would be a boon for truck drivers, salesmen, and anyone with a long commute or going on a road trip. I wonder if it works on it's side ???
