Fireplace Heater Looks, Feels Just Like the Real ThingS  Leave
it to the Japanese to create a heater that's as ingenius as
this. It may look like a cross between an LCD display and a
space heater, but the display part of the gadget actually shows
a "real" fireplace. The end result is that you get to imagine
that your (really tiny) Japanese apartment has a fireplace in it
while you're warming up your fingers and toes during the long
Kyoto winters. Too bad it's 25,800 yen ($242) or we'd import one
for ourselves. [Hammer Price via DVICE]
