From the website:
- Measure Temperature from a Distance
Finally there's an easy, accurate, and safe way to measure temperature — while keeping a safe distance.
Just aim the Infrared Thermometer, press the "Scan" button and read the temperature on the high–contrast LCD display.
Has "Min" and "Max" options to track highest or lowest temperature detected.
Great for troubleshooting furnaces and air conditioners, checking oven and grill temperatures, etc.
• Measures –27 to 428°F (or –33 to 220°C).
• Convenient hand–held size: only 3.75"L.
• Uses one button cell battery (included).

These have been around for some time, and are available with various combinations of data-hold, backlit displays, aiming lasers for distant use, et cetera.
They can be surprisingly handy, because they've got decent accuracy and give an immediate average reading of an area, rather than just the point where you're pressing a probe (which has its own thermal inertia).
Model car and plane people use them to see if engines are running too hot or cold (giving somewhat better accuracy than the old does-your-spit-boil test :-). They can likewise be used as low-rent thermographs to find hot spots in full-sized engines or other machinery. You can see how cold the frost in your freezer is, how hot your tea or coffee is, how warm various surfaces in your house are when the thermostat says 20 degrees C (if you shoot through a window you'll get the temperature of the glass, but you can crack the front door and shoot the lawn to see how hot/cold it is out there), and you can also shoot clouds to see how cold it is up _there_, though no doubt with some signal pollution from the atmosphere.
Shoot a clear sky at night to see why the desert gets so cold then :-).
