The Only Book You'll Ever Need! Printer Friendly Version
A pocket sized book, resembling a novel - with some important advantages... Instead of paper pages, the pages would be made of a thin, flexible, transparent plastic. There would be approx. 300 pages - small enough to carry around in any situation. This book would be digital. Tiny disks or microchips would be downloaded into a slot on the inner back cover, and the pages would magically turn into the pages of whatever book you downloaded - a Biology textbook, or War and Peace - any book in the world. If the 300 pages are not enough, there would be a "Continue" button the very last page, and when pushed, the remainder of the book would be continued from the first page...and so on, until the end of the book. For students, instead of carrying around heavy texts back and forth from school, they would carry this special book, and a small container of microchips or small disks containing their "books".
Reward: Save the environment - no trees need to be cut for these books! Less back strain from carrying around heavy text. Less waisted space in libraries and home bookshelves - more space for other uses. Very convenient, and practical!

Airball Printer Friendly Version
When you play golf, it can become tiresome to bend over 18 times a game to retrieve your golf ball from the cup. Here is my idea: The cup could have a small air cartridge inside that is activated by a small hand held device the players have and could only be triggered from a five foot radius. The air cartridge would only have sufficient air to launch the golf ball three feet into the air and then the golfer then can retrieve his/her golf ball from midair instead of bending over 18 times a game.
Reward: free game with tiger woods.

Pressure Gauge On Carbonated Beverages Printer Friendly Version
Never get sticky again by exploding cans of cabonated drinks!

Just check the displayed pressure on the pressure gauge. The higer or lower the pressure in the can the higher and lower the liquid rises in the small plastic gauge next to a number that tells you the pressure of the contents.
You could locate the gauge anywhere on the can or bottle and in any convenient shape, so that it would be cheap to add. Most likely on the side, vertically attached at the bottom to the inside of the container of liquids. Great for some microwavable products too, where the pressure denotes the temperature.
Reward: To see how small and easily this might be applied.
