Bio-Optic Organized Knowledge Device

Post by Marie5656 »



Introducing the new Bio-Optic Organized Knowledge device,

trade - named: B.O.O.K..

B.O.O.K. 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:

B.O.O.K. 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, B.O.O.K.S 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.

B.O.O.K. 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 "B.O.O.K.mark" accessory allows you to open B.O.O.K. to the exact

place you left it in a previous session - even if the B.O.O.K. has been

closed. B.O.O.K.marks fit universal design standards; thus, a single

B.O.O.K.mark can be used in B.O.O.K.s by various manufacturers. Conversely,

numerous B.O.O.K. markers can be used in a single B.O.O.K. if the user wants

to store numerous views at once. The number is limited only by the

number of pages in the B.O.O.K..

You can also make personal notes next to B.O.O.K. text entries with

optional programming tools, ' Portable Erasable Nib Cryptic

Intercommunication Language Styli (PENCILS). Portable, durable, and

affordable, B.O.O.K. is being hailed as a precursor of a new entertainment

wave. B.O.O.K.'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 from Dot.B.O.O.K. !

Hard copy books are always the best. The problem is where to put them all!
