Pulse SmartPen from LiveScribe

At last, the old pen and pencil that students get blisters from while taking notes is here. It’s called Pulse SmartPen and it’s here to revolutionize the way notes are taken.

It is very similar to any regular ball pen, but the innovation from LiveScribe lies in the additional audio recording. The movements are recorded onto an internal memory along with the audio track. You can later connect it to a computer and store your notes for archival, or to search something you noted months ago.

All in all, it’s a pretty good piece of kit that no mind wandering student shouldn’t have.
