OK hear me out, I just got a new laptop and been using the shitty keyboard cover which it came it.

As it was kinda nasty I went looking for a new one, had my mouse mat on my left and though “uh if only u were the right size and a bit slimmer” and an idea just ringed my hears

“Laptop keyboard cover that could double duty as a mouse pad”

Soft surface and grippy edges so it wouldn’t slide, washable so u can get ridd of the nastyness of the tables u bring it to.

Currently I carry everyday my laptop, my mouse and the charger. If bringing a mousepad was as simple as removing the keyboard cover and putting it in my desk I would pay a couple bucks for it.

My question is :

  • Does it exist? ( not that I am aware )
  • Would it be cool or niche of mine?
  • How to make a patent and make scam kickstart?

    It’s not even about performance it’s about the thin mousepads never wanting to stay put and folding over on the front edge.

      Why bother with a mousepad at all? All it really serves as is an exclusion zone for energy drinks and dirty dishes.

      I’ve used the 0.5/1mm plastic mouse pads for years (I have a couple that are 10 years old now), they don’t slip because the back is a tacky surface, and the front is a textured surface.
