Livescribe Pulse and Echo Smartpen comparison

[dunnk90]

Thanks, this information is very helpful ... but good lord man, you need to change the positioning of your camera and/or your hands. Can't see 50-60% of what you're trying to show, but the bottom half of the screen is perfectly clear and useless.

[jacksite2007]

If it rains tomorrow, sod it, no way im getting the train and walking like 10 minutes from the station to buy one. If its dry and i can be bothered, deffo will buy one :)

[Francy4600]

[422pranav]

till how much distance does echo pen's recording go if i have an echo 3d hearing set?

[KatiushaVN4]

This dark-skinned dude is a scavenger. He lies from A to Z. Probably he's trying to advertise for someone. I had listened to him and had bought an Epson inkjet printer, and guess what, it turned out to be a piece of junk.

[c1ickc1ickB00M]

i have one and everyone in my class thinks im a wanker

[MrBazzzzinga]

Can I use this pen on regular paper or its only made for special paper. I dont care about recordig ad technical part. I just like the way its designed. I remember their use to be old pen with 4 color refill l ike that it was thick and has capsule type shape it said something like monaim on it. Cant find that pen anywhere now :-(

[trackfrances]

@MrBazzzzinga

Yes it can be used on regular paper....but i dont think you will want to spend $100.00 on a pen that your just gonna write and use as a regular pen......

[MrBazzzzinga]

@trackfrances i was just wondering thnx

[sk8terwade4]

why does he have a "i'm a pc" lego, when he has a mac??

[Darbster7]

@sk8terwade4 hahah i was wondering the same thing=P

[dunnk90]

@sk8terwade4 Because John Hodgman is a living legend.

[successman87]

what's the difference?

[viperkid108]

do the notebooks you just named come with the pen?

[AlbertsChannel26]

What if the specially designed paper is used up...do i have to buy a new one from where...??

[Dothetouch]

i cant decide wich one is better the livescribe pulse or echo.

iwould like to know because the pulse smart pen is on sale at best buy but the echo is not.

[sakuranbo888]

can I print out lecture slides out with livescribe paper and write on them?

[pokerrob20]

How are you recieving these things from livescribe? like the things coming out that are not yet out?

[someguynamedpie]

was it just me, but i noticed this video was in HD. Oh well.

--oops-

[Karolina011096]

i forgot.. u cn also buy styluses ( like ink cartridges but with nothing in them ) for apps so you dont have to waste your ink.. :) u can also buy pencils to draw.. :)

[Karolina011096]

ermm.. this makes me wanna buy as teachers in my school talk a lot.. few quick questions..

1) can u delete things of it ? like notes you dont need anymore ?

2) do the pens run out quick ?

3) does the echo have a camera ?

4) do you think that this could be educational revolution ? i mean.. schools gettin em etc.. ? i wish the prices would be lower.. it would help me a lot in my school life.. im gonna save up :)

[flowback101]

you went with the pink...

[TheUltimate231]

which 1 is better. livescribe echo or pulse??????

[sofokles5]

i have them both.

1) echo is a bit thinner and the grip of the pen is by far better than the pulse.

2) the echos mic is better

3) the echo has more memory

4) overall, for sure itseasyer to write with the echo than with the pulse.

[metajend]

also, how much does the notebook paper cost? if a person were to photocopy teh notebook paper would it work/how do the menu etc. buttons work? i am a bit over my head with this...

[metajend]

is this pen pc compatible?

[smlz50]

@metajend yes it is both Mac and PC..

[mrok555]

what is the use of camera ?

[Ellron23]

@mrok555 the infrared camera copies where your are writing on (x,y) co-ordiantes. The tiny dots of the paper serve as the co-ordinate grid. Then it links where you are writing and what audio it is recording.

[KafshakTashtak]

@mrok555 the camera reads the dot pattern on the paper, hence it can read its positions and find out what you're writing.

[Javerageguy]

I have the older pen and it records through an entire lecture hall with decent quality. If you use the headphones/ stereo microphones the quality is great.

[uttoga08]

would you consider doing the desktop interface? I'm curious about editing and "lifting" parts of the notes, such as a drawing and putting in another document. Is that possible. Thanks for this video. It's the best I've seen on the Echo so far.

[blab246]

If it has a camera, does it work in the dark?

[Ellron23]

@blab246 Yes, the camera is infrared.

[mumihp]

As you have both pulse and echo, which do your prefer, is the echo more reliable than the pulse??? I want to get one for university, so lecturers can be recorded as I write, can you record a lecture without writing anything so when you go home, upload the recording, then in your own time, take your notes done without rushing in lectures. Thanks for the comparison, also can you tell me the what the release year for the pulse was, 2009??? In the UK they cos t£120+, is it worth it for that price??

[ferdiemac]

On all demos i've seen on youtube i noticed it has a tone whenever you tap a button. Is there a mute option for the tones? im worrying it would talk or beep while in a lecture, whenever i tap record/stop button. could anyone please answer me... im considering buying this pen for my classes. Thanks

[CracKpotCooKie]

@ferdiemac Yes you can mute all sound functions for when you are in lectures or tutorials, this pen is great, but if i were you i would but the echo i have had two pulse smartpens and although are really like them both have aquired faults resulting in them being sent back, whereas the echo seems to be much more reliable

[RammaJammaAIabama]

@ferdiemac yes you may turn the volume down all the way

[xTMiHx]

Are you running Mac OSX 10.4?

[OscarssonJoakim]

How long battery time does it have? Will it hold for, let's say, 5-6 hours of recording?

And, do you know how well it records from grater distances? (In a lecture room I might end up much farther away from the lecturer that 15 feet...)

[Novinte]

Does it record per example what a person 5 meters away says? A teacher?

[Hwgeeks]

@Novinte yes I was maybe 15 feet froms omeone yesterday and it recorded them. As long as they speak up.

[melonsoda24]

thanks man

[Tankerlady88]

7.2-nél marha érdekes :)))

[schiffer616]

can you disable sound on either versions, thanks

[Hwgeeks]

@schiffer616 yes you can mute the volume.

[schiffer616]

@Hwgeeks And is that feature capable with both the pulse and echo?

[Hwgeeks]

@schiffer616 yes

[Deborahjohansen]

This is something fantastic but what are the accessories that I have to buy with it if I'm a first time user. I will mainly use it for writing up of minutes?

[Hwgeeks]

@Deborahjohansen it comes with everything you need but you will special notebook paper etc. you can print the paper (dot paper) on a printer.

[harryrao111]

Is there any difference in battery life between em?

[Hwgeeks]

@harryrao111 I didn't detect any difference but the echo does go into power savings mode faster.

[TheOliChabot]

can yu tear a sheet from the journal and it will still work or you absolutely need to keep the cheet in the journal ?

[Hwgeeks]

@TheOliChabot you can but it will always be assosiated with that notebool or journal.

[International0IDIOT]

You should of Wrote yourself a script or at lease a note pad of differences so you wouldn't have to recall differences off the top of your... um.. head.

[tuberoako777]

amazing device :) Wish I had one to play with.

[bachshoulddie]

are there any difference with the audio?

Thanks

[Hwgeeks]

@bachshoulddie none that I could detect

[RealSkyDiver2]

you mean using it to draw free-hand pictures and have it displayed on the screen like a tablet replacement? that's no secret

[Hwgeeks]

@RealSkyDiver2 when I spoke with the livescribe people they made it seem as if it were top secret lol. But its cool to beable to write something and have it appear on the screen as you write it.
