A box with lid, spindle, rewind button, a motor, .25USD in electronics and an LED. Insert DVD and press the rewind button. The thing spins for two minutes then turns off. Uses two "AA" batteries.

Just in time for Christmas.

Very funny!! You should follow through on this one [phoenix]. Forget a patent, just pre-sell 20% of your yet-to-be-made inventory, and that'll pay for the manufacturing - for next Christmas. At $8.99 retail I'd be the first to buy one in my town! +

Sell as combo with the completely legal DVD copier, works for all DVDs, defeats all copy protection mechanism. Place DVD on glass, push copy button. After just seconds a lovely print of your DVD label pops out. Keep it in your collection as a reminder for all those cherished moments of watching the DVD, like when that fat guy sat down on the wedding cake.

Warning: Do not insert copy into rewinder. It can jam the mechanism. This is not covered under the lifetime warranty.

I gave one of these to my sister for her birthday last year. Actually, I gave her an empty box which I had labelled "DVD Rewinder" because I was too cheap and too stupid to put anything in it. I did remember to make sure she had opened the DVD player we had all chipped in on BEFORE she opened the rewinder.
She didn't get it.
Even after we explained it.
Twice.
Nice girl, but she hit her head on the bottom of a pool when he was a kid, though.

Anything else you want to reveal about your sister...like his/her sex change?

I have already said too much about her, but if you want any dirt on my brother...

Make it shaped like a non-descript car like all VHS rewinders

Oh, I'm so disappointed about that link. Well, at least I spec'ed mine with a lid.
