[David Burton]

They're pretty cheap at NewEgg:

However, if your laptop is having cooling issues, the *first* thing you
should do is to blow out the dust with canned air or an air compressor
hose.  Just blast compressed air into each and every ventilation hole/grill
on the bottom, back & sides of the computer.

The second thing is to put the computer on a hard surface, so that
ventilation holes on the bottom aren't blocked.

Cooling pads are usually unnecessary.
