For that matter, spinning one of these things by itself on a flat surface should do the trick for debunking the magnetic claims, I think. I think the key thing here is that if it were the magnetic fields, the force wouldn't always be to the right, as the whole thing should be rotationally invariant, and would always be to wherever the "right" is right now.
