Cocoa Writeboard, Slim, & Slate Clear the Clutter

New Office & Home Desktop Products Provide Eco-Friendly Alternatives to Sticky Notes

DRAPER, Utah — July 21, 2008 — Old habits are hard to break. Whether checking your voicemail or having a “light-bulb moment,” you reach for the nearest pen and scrap of paper—in many cases, a sticky note—to jot down the message or thought. While convenient, it’s this constant consumption and reliance on paper that needs a simple, sustainable solution. Drawing on the consumer’s desire for recording and organizing temporary information, the Cocoa Writeboard, Slim, and Slate provide patented solutions to the everyday problems of note-taking and desktop clutter.

The newly available Cocoa Writeboard provides an attractive alternative for making the office and home cleaner, better organized, and a little greener. The Writeboard features a transparent dry-erase board seated in a stylish black, white, or clear base at a comfortable angle for jotting notes. The large-surfaced (11.8” x 12”x 2”) Writeboard includes an erasable marker with attached eraser as well as an innovative template system described below.

The Cocoa Writeboard is available at target.com with an MSRP of $24.99. The Cocoa Slim, a smaller version of the Writeboard (6” x 11” x 2”), is available for $19.95 MSRP at cocoaliving.com.

Taking its cue from simpler times, the Cocoa Slate provides all of the convenience of the Writeboard and Slim in a portable, versatile design. The 14.25” x 9.25” x 2” Cocoa Slate with handle features a similar tablet with template, making it a smart, eco-friendly tool for coaches, kids, students, outdoor enthusiasts, hobbyists or anyone wanting to stay organized and to work comfortably. The Slate retails for $19.95 MSRP and is available online and at Hobby Lobby and the Container Store.

Furthering the eco-friendly footprint for all three products are reusable blank and printed templates that rest beneath the writing surface, giving the consumer limitless ways to configure the Writeboard, Slim, or Slate to their specific needs. More than 500 templates are available online to download and print.
