RevolveR notebook turns inside out

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.

Could this become the gimmick for Mark Danielewski's next book?

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!
