I don't work the pen too hard but do use it daily to keep track of customers their equipment and drawings when needed. Has helped to get me more organized and keep track of where I've been, what I'm doing, and who I'm doing it with. So far very happy with how it works for me.
5+ years after surviving a severe Traumatic Brain Injury, I was allowed to start school again. I was concerned that if I 'missed' something a teacher said, I might lose important information. My Doc recommended this Pen. If I'm not clear about what a Professor said, I write a '*' in the notebook and, after class, I put the pen on the *, rewind the audio a bit, and listen to what I couldn't remember. Even other students have asked me for a CD w/ the audio, that I can make after I Sync the Pen to my PC n create a *.PDF file, so they can review the lesson. The Pen is a HUGE help and I thank Staples for carrying it!
This product can be used by someone taking light notes or conducting an inventory. Description should be more forthcoming and inclusive. Limitations were hidden. The pen would not work for anyone doing any serious writing.
As a student, my daughter, was delighted with this gift, since she can record every word the professor says, and she can transfer her notes right to her PC.
I could not believe how easy this was to set up and use. I took notes at a meeting and when I came home - I had every word! This way you don't miss a thing that is being said. With as many meetings as I go to, I may check into the headset that you can buy from Livescribe.com to go with this, since I do take notes from a very large meeting room.I am so happy that I saved and got this one. It is worth the price. Also, by waiting they now have the Echo which is a little smaller at the tip end and has a non slip grip which makes it easier for a smaller hand to hold on to.[...]
