New Technology Discovery:
The Book
Announcing the new Built-in Orderly Organized Knowledge
device (BOOK). It's 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. Just lift its cover. 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 disk.
Here's how it works: Each BOOK is constructed of sequentially
numbered sheets of paper (recyclable), each capable of holding
thousands of bits of information.
These pages are locked together with a custom-fit device
called a binder which keeps the sheets in their correct sequence.
By using both sides of each sheet, manufacturers are able to cut
costs in half.
Each sheet is scanned optically, registering information
directly into your brain. A flick of the finger takes you to the
next sheet. The BOOK may be taken up at any time and used
by merely opening it. The "browse" feature allows you to move
instantly to any sheet, and move forward or backward as you wish.
Most 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 the
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.
Portable, durable and affordable, the BOOK is the entertainment
wave of the future, and many new titles are expected soon, due to the
surge in popularity of its programming tool, the Portable Erasable-Nib
Cryptic Intercommunication Language Stylus

The love of books is something that we learn, when we sit on our Dad's knee and look at the wonder of another's journey and are read to sleep at night, drifting in and out of some wonderful journey as the story transforms from mere squiggles on a page into the adventures of our own dreams.
