Cyber Gear signs with VQ Interactive to introduce interactive e-Books technology in the Middle East

It is now possible to view online, documents such as albums, manuals, catalogs and books using 'Flipping Technology'.

The technology allows pages to be downloaded and organised into a book form. Individual pages are displayed like those in a real book. Every page of the book is only a click away. While reading
the current page, the next few pages are streamed into the PC. E-books can also be sent as small attachments in emails. This technology is compatible with all s-books containing JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP, HTML, PDF, WAV, MID, and MP3 files.

Some of the features of e-book application are:
• Page Flipping
Realistic 3D page flipping effects with
adjustable flipping speeds and page flipping sounds.
• Page Streaming
As pages are initially opened, the rest of the
book is downloaded. This allows for quicker loading time per page.
• Book Paradigm
The thickness of the book is representative of
the number of pages in the book, just like in a
real book. One can "thumb" through the book with
the mouse or use the page number cues as a guide.
• Web Enabled
Use e-book as a web browser. The pages are
downloaded while surfing and one does not have to wait for the download again.
•Picture Layout
Choose between centerfold and 2-page layouts for book viewing. Adjust the margins of the pages to suit personal comfort and convenience.
