Designed for developing countries where homes are not centrally heated and children can’t afford the luxury of electric blankets, the wax-filled heating pouch has a nylon outer (which gives it that FedEx look which is so hot right now) and can be easily carried by parents. It’s aimed at India for now, but if successful will be rolled out to Asia and Africa. [Embrace Global via Core77]

They should come with a sticker to never, ever use this thing in summer.

In the market this is aimed at (developing nations) the majority can’t read anyway, and if they can they would not bother. You have no idea how many time i have been to HK and China and seen people using things in ways they were not designed for.
