[TheCurtisptrsn]

[pokerrob20]

i recieved mine xmas of 2010 last yr and it was only 99 bucks glad i waited but truly it is a great pen and worth the money even at the cost of two yrs ago

[linday2009]

[MirageScience]

Got 4G version free from college, with extra paper pad

I'm very impressed on this one. Looks like an invaluable tool for many professions, especially educational institutions, and the engineering fields. Kudos to them on this, I'm sure they will make some bank off of professors alone.

[NioushaXD]

i MUST have this!

[jankishah]

Yo, I have had the pen for over 4 months and its helped me this semester in my classes. I just got one for my cousin on the livescribe site and got 10% off and free shipping this time by using SCRIBE5A31

[babigirllena]

[jocularity13]

[mossman8787]

[penguindude77]

[G0dMoUSe]

I'm so buying this...I also heard you can draw a piano and then play it...thats so unreal.

[antoneykent]

ok, but it is overengineered

[Mexicandude24]

not a great idea of a pen this will be stolen often in schools

[brakkum]

thats why you dont just leave it sitting around.

[mossman8787]

amen to that... gone are the days when you say... "I've got a pen you can borrow" it will be more like "Hey got something I can write with bro?"

"Hell no! get your own!"

[BayAreaBiker2001]

With its capabilities, I wouldn't be surprised. These pens are available at Target, including one in Cupertino near De Anza College, where I'm sure they will be in great demand.

Where can I buy this cool stuff in Glasgow?

He have mentioned about the qualified laser jet printer, what is that? Which model and brand should i use?

[yeahsteeeve]

I would lose that pen in 10 minutes.

[heartsdeprived]

I think it's too expensive. Plus, why would you carry around a pen+paper when you would just carry around a laptop now? Plus, when you go back to your dorm or home or whatever, you'll have to transfer the files from the pen and to the computer, wasting time when you could already be sending it by email with your computer. The only good part maybe is the translater and the recorder, but I just see more uses with the laptop, than with the smart pen [which needs a laptop as well as the pen itself].

I personally don't like taking notes on a computer, then incorporating sound bytes from a second device into specific points in my notes. It would almost take as long as the recording itself just to edit it into smaller portions to link with notes.This pen does it for you in real time, to where you just touch the paper by your notes to hear the sound byte replayed.That alone is invaluable when its been a few days since you looked at previous notes.If a lap top program can do this, then I'd buy.

Most likely is a computer that can do that, seeing as the digital pen is a small computer the tech came from computers, dumb question look around.
