what does the magnet do

I thought the magnet kept the cover closed when I threw it into the car but, according to the description, it activates the sleep/wake feature.

It puts the kindle to "sleep" when you close the kindle, similar function to some laptops

I just tested a magnet and there was a strong connection. It should work based on this.

No, it a magnet. It is not so strong that it is hard to open but just stays closes. Easily opened.

I read on another site that the magnets are designed to provide an "acupressure" point to the skin it comes in contact with. I'm assuming that these magnets work like other wearable magnet therapy jewelry and devices, by increasing blood flow. That being said, the magnets are removable and I took mine out because I use the cups for massage as well and I didn't want the magnets poking me.

I am unsure about a magnet. We just used a lanyard and wore them around the neck.

If it is made of ferrous metal, so the magnet will work, you should not have any issues.

Our door works just as represented: first setting lets any 'animals' come and go at will, no magnet needed; second setting animals with magnet collar only coming in, anything can go out without magnet; third setting locks door so no animals can go either way, nothing to do with magnet. Hope that helps.

This is a best guess answer... If you are trying to wipe the drive on purpose, put the magnet on the drive casing while it is running, then try reading the drive. if, on the other hand, you are planning on having the magnet placed near the drive to serve some other purpose, and you are wondering if the magnet will affect the drive in some manner, Murphy's Law will take precedence (If something can go wrong, it will go wrong). Your drive WILL get screwed up. A suggestion Mr. Green... Hard drives are cheap these days. Taken the old drive out of your computer and take a hammer to it. Replace it with a new drive.

It is not a magnet, it is a ceramic ferrite bead choke used to eliminate high frequency noise. Usually these are not removable and are molded onto the cable.

Magnet. There are technically two magnets, one on the closure, and the other on the back of the case. It's a cool Set up, but it does mess a little when using the s pen

It came with a low speed magnet. I think there are options out there to get a high speed magnet, though.

I don't know how this compares to a permanent (static) magnet. This academic paper would lead one to believe that a static magnetic field (as produced by a permanent magnet) does have an effect: http://www.ecaa.ntu.edu.tw/weifang/water/Magnetic%20water%20treatment.pdf .

I think. Its just a magnet with a string connected to it. That's all I needed.

A magnet. It's a sturdy little piece - I haven't had any issues with it staying closed
