Has anyone every heard of or used a Himalayan Salt Plate?

I saw this advertised in my new Sur La Table catalog and it looks so cool, I'm dying to try it but want to know if it's worth it. I also googled salt plate and found more sites that sell them, so I'll look for the best price.

I saw some chef cooking with them but don't remember much about it

It does look cool.

Was at SurLaTable today and took a look at it. It was SUPER heavy, as you can

imagine - shipping by weight would be a problem if you couldn't get one local.
I liked the idea of chilling it and putting cold appetizers on it. Neat idea.
Also, for bar-b-que. Just wondering how long it would last before it started to dissolve.
I asked the staff, but they didn't know.
Let us know if you get one!
