What is a B.O.O.K

Introducing the new Bio-Optic Organized Knowledge device, commonly called a BOOK.

BOOK is a revolutionary breakthrough in technology; no wires, no electric circuits, no batteries, nothing to be connected or switched on. It's so easy to use even a child can operate it.

Compact and portable, it can be used anywhere, even sitting in an armchair by the fire, yet it is powerful enough to hold as much information as a CD-ROM disc.

Here is how it works: BOOK is constructed of sequentially numbered sheets, called pages, of recyclable paper, each capable of holding thousands of bits of information.

The pages are locked together with a custom-fit device called a binder, which keeps the sheets in their correct sequence. Opaque Paper Technology (OPT) allows manufacturers to use both sides of the sheet, doubling the information density and cutting costs by 1/2.

Each sheet is scanned optically, registering information directly into your brain. A flick of your finger takes you to the next sheet. BOOK may be taken up at any time and used merely by simply opening it.

BOOK never crashes or requires rebooting.

The Browse feature allows you to move instantly to any sheet, and move forward or backward as you wish. Many come with an Index feature, which pinpoints the exact location of any selected information for instant retrieval.

An optional BOOKMARK accessory allows you to open BOOK to the exact place you left it in a previous session, even if the BOOK is closed.

BOOKMARKS fit universal design standards; thus, a single BOOKMARK can be used in BOOKS by various manufacturers. Conversely, numerous BOOKMARKS can be used in a single BOOK if the user wants to store numerous views at once. The number is limited by the number of pages in the BOOK.

You can also make personal notes next to BOOK text entries with an optional programming tool named: Portable Erasable Nib Cryptic Intercommunication Language Stylus, PENCILS for short.

Portable, durable and affordable, the BOOK is being hailed as the precursor of a huge entertainment wave. BOOK'S appeal seems so certain that thousands of content-creators have committed to this platform and investors are reportedly flocking to the new phenomenon.

Where would I get a version of this BOOK? the MS BOOK 3.1 has many bugs i'm told and the shareware Linux BOOK, is not very accessible or user friendly and ofcourse Apple's new Mac BOOK, can only be bought if you buy Apple's BOOKSHELF. *sigh*
