Well, I can think of a dozen good anti-gravity devices. Or perhaps, I should 
be more specific, and refer to them as gravity-opposing devices, since they 
operate counter to, say, Earth's gravitational field. You'll also not that 
gravity has nothing to do with it, but they're not going to mention that in 
the ads.

A few examples of such devices: airplanes, helicopters, air-hocky-boards and 
pucks, etc.

Clever (and not-quite-honest) advertising can describe these things as 
opposing gravity. That's what I suspect these people are up to.
