Default Travel tea cups with built filters

I have a good friend who traveled through China recently and found
many people using clear plastic travel cups with filters (small
basket) and a lid. This allowed me to either put tea in the bottem of
the cup and fit the filter into the top. This is great! I just keep
adding hot water off I go. Or the tea could go into the the filter on
top and as a infuser of the tea- fix it to your desire. My friend gave
me a small 6-8 oz. cup that I just love.

These cups (glasses, cup, mug with out a handle don't know what to
call them) are great but since I do not know what they are called I
can't search the web to find resellers. I searched the web but have
not see these types of cups.

Does anyone know about these? Where can I find them on the web? What
are they called? Is there a whole seller they someone out there knows?

Thanks for your help.

it's funny to me seeing these posts. i took for granted that you
could just get those at the supermarket for basically pennies in China
but you have to pay like 20 bucks for them here. heh

stupid of me for not getting one! heh.
