MAJOR TECHNOLOGICAL BREAKTHROUGH

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
display devices it can become unusable if dropped overboard.
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 "BOOK-
mark" 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 an optional programming tool, the Portable Erasable Nib
Cryptic Intercommunication Language Stylus (PENCILS).
Portable, durable, and affordable, BOOK is being hailed as a precursor of a new entertainment wave. Also, BOOK's appeal
seems so certain that thousands of content creators have
committed to the platform and investors are reportedly flocking. Look for a flood of new titles soon.
