"BOOK."

THE BOOK is a revolutionary breakthrough in technology. No wires. No
electric circuits. No batteries. Nothing to be connected or switched on. So
easy to use, even a child can operate it. Compact and portable. 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:

You can also make personal notes next to BOOK text entries with optional
programming tools, Portable Erasable Nib Cryptic Intercommunication Language

.....I am trying to find a great short article about a device called the
BOOK.   This was a comic piece written in the 1960s detailing a great
innovation called a BOOK and it goes on to detail all the attributes of a
BOOK, with each part being an Acronym (i.e. PAGE = Blah Blah Blah;  WORD =
blah blah blah).

Didn't find it in Short Story Index ..anyone recognize this? Thanks ..
