This is fun and informative, but as someone who also played with magnets as a child and adult, alternating poles on one surface is nothing new - most rubberized magnetic strips have created stronger "bonds" using this trick for at least 40 years.

Ok, the latching magnet is pretty cool. I definitely want some cabinets with those as latches.

I remember seeing another similar polarization control last year, but I don't think it was the same company. Can't recall the name though.. arrg.
