Great.

I am not sure this mousepad is targeted at female internet users.
Looks more like something a guy would buy for the visual, then say "yeah I participate in Breast Cancer awareness"

I want one of those.

And I don't even have a mouse, I use the trackpad.

I prefer the Axe mousepad idea.

I reckon these will get stolen too, I guess. The full frontal might be a little uncomfortable for some people.

Paul Chan's name is everywhere.

I don't think it's 100% fair or equal to compare this to the Axe one, but something about this feels too simplistic. But, again, gotta give 'em credit for getting the message out in an original way.

Idea been used before (in thailand).

The difference between HK and Thailand is that in Thailand, they probably used a ladyboy (transvestite) instead!

kinda dumb, as males outnumber females at internet cafes 3:1

Not clear enough...Wrong place to reach the target as well I think. I imagine more the guys visiting porn sites being very happy about having a mouse pad with breast. I also reminds me of something Axe did ( I think it was Axe...), the mouse pad was a skirt and the mouse was under the skirt.So it looked like you were doing naughty things to a demoiselle when surfing...lol

i think some of the old man/women do visiting cc
even kids also surf internet at cc
targeting group is blur
the shouts from the images (which digest at first) may be reject by some people
