In other hover-news, this is the $100 Levitron Revolution. It can levitate any object that fits on its hoverdisk and weighs less than 12-ounces. How? Magic magnets WIZAAAAAARDZ!

According to the manufacturers, "The Levitron automatically compensates for changes in weight by making up to 1,000 corrections per second to the electromagnets contained within the base."
