I have a vornado at my desk - I use this one: https://www.amazon.com/Vornado-Zippi-Personal-Fan-Ice/dp/B000E19MQ8/ref=sr_1_9?keywords=vornado%2Bdesk&qid=1569264640&s=home-garden&sr=1-9&th=1
It doesn't have the variable speed like OP requested, but it is SUPER quiet and gets the job done.
Very interesting!
I’ve used this Vornado travel fan for years. Similar design (but less awesome). My kids love sticking their fingers in the “blades.”

This thing is almost silent. Quieter than the background noise of the AC in my office.
Do you have problems being backlit by your window with that camera?
Also have you see the zippi fan with cloth blades? Great for work desks because you don't need the guard around the blade so you can move it around the desk more easily.
Glad to see somebody else still uses trackballs also.

The Vornado Zippi, like this one?
This fan. I didn’t want a fan with rigid blades because I didn’t want to have to worry about cleaning it.
Nope, I don't change. However, I can work in shorts in the summer. The key to remaining fresh is not whether you sweat a bit, but how clean you and your clothes are when you do.
If you sweat with a dirty body or clothes, you'll foster some pungent smells. If you shower in the morning and ride in in clean clothes, you're unlikely to generate any unpleasantness.
Some people refuse to believe this and get quite irate at the suggestion; I don't know why. My wife knows that it's very important to me that she tells me if I smell, and I've even asked our small children about it, with their sensitive noses... And believe me, they don't hold back their opinions.
The sweaty time is the time immediately after getting off, when the heat you generated isn't getting blown off by the breeze. For that a fan at the desk is good. I like these Zippi fans - nearly silent.
I bought one of these many years back. It would work well in the application, though it doesnt move quite as much air as a traditional fan.
I have one of these guys at home and may see if I can attach some sponge or something to one of the fabric blades: https://www.amazon.com/Vornado-Zippi-Personal-Fan-Black/dp/B000E19MQ8
It's much easier for guys- a lot of men's dress slacks are usually lightweight & breathable polyester, I'll wear that with a polyester polo (like a golf or soccer shirt) and then change into a collared work shirt at the office. That's probably not as viable an option for you, but if you can it makes a big difference. On really hot days you can hit it a few times with a spray water bottle and stick it in the freezer for 15 minutes prior to riding in. a soft-bladed desk fan works wonders. In addition, I have a small towel or two at the office and use baby wipes/rubbing alcohol + cotton pads. I also keep a can of soda in the office fridge- not to drink, but to press against myself to help cool down:/ A more upright cycling posture means you're less aerodynamic, but that also means more airflow and sometimes helps cool, but does little when it's 90℉+ and humid.
It is - Vornado Zippi Personal Fan, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000E19MQ8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_wTxKBbW498EM6
I own 3 of them and love them.
Hello there!
Here's a small, personal fan that I've found for you.
Most of the reviews talk about how quiet and effective the fan works.
Costs £32.65 on Amazon UK
Isn't that velour like the 598? I found it much more tolerable and airy than leather or PUleather with warm weather (had 30c indoors a couple of weeks ago).
Buddy, you need a Vornado Zippi; It helped me on my listening sessions when there was no AC in the room/desk.
