Introducing the new Bio-Optic Organized Knowledge device, trade-named -- 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's how it works:
BOOK is constructed of sequentially numbered sheets of paper (recyclable),
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. Experts
are
divided on the prospects for further increases in information density;
for
now, BOOKS with more information simply use more pages. Each sheet
is
scanned optically, registering information directly into your brain.
A
flick of the finger takes you to the next sheet.
BOOK may be taken up at any time and used merely by opening it.
BOOK never crashes or requires rebooting, though, like other devices,
it
can become damaged if coffee is spilled on it and it becomes unusable
if
dropped too many times on a hard surface. 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 pin-points 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 has been closed.
BOOKmarks fit universal design standards; thus, a single BOOKmark can
be
used in BOOKs by various manufacturers. Conversely, numerous BOOK markers
can be used in a single BOOK if the user wants to store numerous views
at
once. The number is limited only by the number of pages in the BOOK.
You
can also make personal notes next to BOOK text entries with optional
programming tools, Portable Erasable Nib Cryptic Intercommunication
Language Styli (PENCILS).
Portable, durable, and affordable, BOOK is being hailed as a precursor
of a
new entertainment wave. BOOK's appeal seems so certain that thousands
of
content creators have committed to the platform and investors are
reportedly flocking to invest. Look for a flood of new titles soon.
