EVERLAST : A notebook that can be reused endless of times

We live in the age of computer where everything is done by a electronic device connected with laptop or other computer related products. But today we talk about a simple product, unexceptionally almost everyone needs one, in fact, we use it since the moment we learnt to hold a pencil. Yes, I talk about "NOTEBOOK". Going back to the past, a notebook contain some pages, simple bound using with owners pen or pencil that have no relation with laptop or computer related products, small enough to carry around, for note taking, sketching, ideas brainstorming, diaries, memorandum, etc. After completed all the pages we bought another one. Sometimes we had different notebook at a time for different subject. Yap , that was the grand father or mother, whatever you say, of today's notebook. 

Today's notebook is little bit different from old one brought to you by Rocketbook-Kickstarter. They call it "Ever-last" like their previous version "Wave Smart Notebook". Designed for the information age, The Everlast Notebook is a smart pen-and-paper notebook that can be reused endless of times. It is cloud connected where you can send those old unused notes to cloud, and wipe them away instantly and magically with just a few drops of water or microwave woven, or blending (!!).

The notebook works with pens from the Pilot Frixion line, a special formulated classic pen with thermochromic ink that disappeared when heated. However unlike its counterpart, Everlast does not designed to withstand high temperature so heating is not recommended. It is made of waterproof synthetic polyester blend, where you can use a moist paper towel to wipe off the content perfectly with no old fainted ink.

Everlast notebooks are compatible with the Rocketbook app. Download their free Rocketbook app on App Store and Google Play. Over the app, configure the destination of each symbols (7 total) to popular cloud services such as Google Drive, Dropbox, Evernote and more. When you have finish writing the content, mark any of the 7 symbols located at the bottom of each page, and scan the pages with Rocketbook app to auto-capture the image. 

Everlast notebooks come in two sizes with a letter size 8.5″ x 11″ notebook with 32 pages are a smaller executive size with 6″ x 8″ pages with 36 sheets in the notebook. Both versions have a dot grid pattern and are made in the USA.

Finally some minor drawbacks. The creators are honest about the fact that if you’re left handed and tend to drag your hand along what you’re writing, you’ll probably smudge it, since the Frixion ink takes several seconds to bond to the “paper.” And if you leave the ink on the page for more than 2 months, Rocketbook suggests do not let the ink sits on notebook for more than 1 month it’ll leave a faint trace. 

The Everlast Notebook isn’t going to change the world but this is a cool way to do the analog-digital thing without actually using any paper.
