The RevolveR notebook uses a design similar to a cloth Jacob's Ladder toy to create a journal with "floating" bindings, so that you can turn it inside-out.

Nexus One writeup in Technology Review
Technology Review's writeup of Google Nexus One phone hits all the high-notes. I've had one of these for a month now (we bought one for my wife and got another through Google's developer program) -- it replaced an aging and somewhat slow G1 I bought in 2008 -- and I am absolutely delighted with it. ...

3DTV is coming, but are there health risks?
Will continuous, long-term exposure to 3D create potential health hazards? "None of the television manufacturers have done any health & safety testing around this.

Could this become the gimmick for Mark Danielewski's next book?
Why?
How much ya wanna bet that this is the result of a 20 year old female art student who's boyfriend brought over some Canadian hash one weekend.
My tea has worn off. This is special because?
Can't be 100% sure just from the video but it looks to me like someone has decided to take a principle from an old magic prop and put notebook pages inside it. Regardless, at $16 for the smaller one it could be a very economical addition to any magician's tool kit (even moreso if they will bind it with the same color for both exteriors)
Awwww, man, I really wanted this to be a notebook computer. I misread the headline...but upon reflection, it would be kind of a useless form factor, wouldn't it?
Should've called it RevoloveR...
I, too, thought it was a notebook computer - some kind of laptop->tablet conversion going on.
Meh... I thought it was a Megatron-shaped laptop.
wow supercool! haha, ya, it was totally invented while on hash.
but seriously, this wud be so useful. sketches and journal entries? i need something for my fashion designs and measurements. wow, this would be so useful!
Huh. I should have kept a closer eye on this thread.
Given how many people I've seen react to the Revolver binding by saying "I Must Have one of those" (or "Someone I know Must Have one of those"), I have to conclude, not that the design is stupid, or the designer is stupid, but that shanealeslie is. Efergus3 ain't too bright either.
I'm also not impressed by all the commenters who complained because they forgot that "notebook" doesn't automatically mean "computer." I've never understood why sloppy reading skills and/or a curtailed vocabulary are supposed to be Boing Boing's fault.
