Microwaveable HEAT RETENTIVE PLATES that really keep dinner hot
Idea Description
Heat Retentive Plates that really keep dinner hot; microwave typically for only ONE MINUTE (1:15 min if you prefer) and they will stay hot for HALF HOUR (still hot after 30 minutes) THE RIM REMAINS COOL FOR EASY HANDLING; coffee mugs that keep your coffee hot (AT THE IDEAL TEMPERATURE) to the last sip WITHOUT OVERHEATING IT can be manufactured with the same simple technology as well as gravy boats, tortilla warmers, waterless baby dishes, etc.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
Since I already have working prototypes that have been tested for about 3 years, I would invest the $10k in ordering beautiful production prototypes and marketing; getting the whole world to know http://wwwHotSmartUSA.com

How sure are you about the patents in China? They are notorious for "lax" patents. Although I do agree that outsourcing production is the way to go, you have to be sure that you use a trusted broker. India might be a better alternative, their IP laws are much stricter and I believe there is a website that rates the reliability of importer/exporters.
