Summary: Umm ok
Comment: I'm such a geek. I still have no idea why I spent $61 plus $10 shipping for this thing. I got it from UPS about 2 hours ago. I excitedly opened the box, read the instructions and put the globe onto the base. it took several tries before I found the 'sweet spot'. Viola! My globe was floating. I stared at it for about 2 minutes, crinkled my nose then I was bored. Here's the problem. I thought I could move the globe, maybe make it spin. You can barely touch the globe before it falls out of the center and gets sucked into one of the outer magnets. I was hoping it wouldn't be this touchy. So basically all it does IS levitate the globe. Look at the photo. That what it does. Nothing. I'm staring at it right now on top of my desk. big woop. So..........it is possible to use magnets to suspend a small globe. I you GOTTA witness it for yourself then spend the $71. Maybe I can get my deskfan to blow on it to make it to make it spin or something. Beats me. If I do I'll update you.
3 stars. I would have paid maybe $30 for this thing.

Summary: Excellent for techies/engineers
Comment: Once I knew something like this existed, I had to have it. Bought it before the price drop and still felt it was an excellent buy. You can spin it, but it slows quickly and wobbles a bit when you do. Looks great on my desk, and starts many conversations. It's just like it looks, no tricks... it floats about 3/4 to 1 inch above the base. It uses a combination of powerful magnets and electronic coils (uses an A/C adapeter that plugs into the back of the base, not shown in most pictures) to keep the globe levitating. Note: Needs a wood or non-metal desk top to work best. Overall, I love it as a novelty in my office.
