Gordon Stewart, SpaceBook inventor, Has Launched His New Product on Kickstarter, Called the gStick Mouse

Anchorage, AK, July 11, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Gordon Stewart, the inventor of the dual-screen SpaceBook 17-inch laptop, has launched his new product on Kickstarter.

The gstick is a wireless mouse for Mac, Linux & Windows PC's that you hold like a pencil, it scrolls on a mouse pad and fits in your pocket. Anyone who can write with a pencil and wants a more comfortable and ergonomic computer mouse will enjoy the gStick. If your computer uses a mouse, the gStick will work on it.

“In 2009 I conceived the gStick after trying to sign my signature to an online contract with a traditional mouse. I was very frustrated and I wanted something that worked more accurately, that was inexpensive, and that did not need a stylus pad.” -Gordon Stewart

After conceiving the gStick mouse idea in 2009, Gordon started building prototypes. Then after 6-months of searching, he found a manufacturer to build a prototype. He spent a year in R&D with this manufacture and eventually they said they could not complete his design. After searching for a new manufacturer, he finally found one, able and willing to complete R&D and deliver a working prototype after more than a year. Gordon showed the factory engineers how to make it work, and in 2013, a working prototype was delivered and now Gordon is ready for tooling and production of the gStick.

“I have made many mistakes and learned many lessons while working on the SpaceBook and gStick projects. I hope to inspire other inventors who are on a budget to create, design and bring products to market with my new pocket guide, ‘Invent: 10 Steps from Sketch to Market.’”

Gordon is now launching the gStick on Kickstarter, a crowd funding website.

“I believe that Kickstarter and other crowd-funding platforms are a paradigm shift for independent inventors and creative entrepreneurs. Kickstarter provides invaluable opportunities to bring an idea into production.” -Gordon Stewart

Gordon continues, “Kickstarter is literally changing the way inventors and product creators bring an idea to market on a global scale. Kickstarter is incredible and the effect it has on our world will be epic.”

As for the SpaceBook, Gordon says, “2011 was a very bittersweet year. We had over $20 million in orders that we could not process or accept and credit card companies and local banks were no help.” -Gordon Stewart

However, the SpaceBook was finally manufactured and now Gordon is working on a partnership with a larger PC company to co-brand the SpaceBook for global distribution.

“I believe that the SpaceBook will emerge as a strong global product with the help of our new co-brand partner because it is a unique, exciting product.” -Gordon Stewart

In 2012, the SpaceBook was featured at Microsoft Experience Day in Hollywood. Since then, he has been invited to submit the SpaceBook to the Academy Awards for a Scientific and Technical Award.
