Claim:
An interactive electronic book comprising: a substrate comprising at least one finger-sensitive sensor that senses a finger of a user; a pliable media including at least one page with at least one site, said pliable media removably attached on top of said substrate; a page detection mechanism that determines a page exposed to the user; a control circuit that receives an indication from the page detection mechanism of a current page being displayed and an indication from the finger-sensitive touch sensor of a location on the page being touched by the user; a memory device coupled to said control circuit and storing at least one multimedia object, each of said at least one multimedia object corresponds to one of said site of said page; a multimedia output device coupled to said control circuit that presents said at least one multimedia object to said user; wherein said pane detection mechanism comprises: a strip attached to different locations of said page; a strip detecting circuit coupled to said control circuit; wherein when said strip moves from a first position to a second position as the user flips the page; the strip detecting circuit detects the movement of said strip and sends out at least one signal to said control circuit, indicating the page that is exposed to said user; wherein said strip detecting circuit generates a first signal when said strip is at a third position that is between said first position and said second position and generates a second signal when said strip is at said second position and also after a predefined period of time when said first signal is generated.
