  • Abstract:  Despite the similar look and comparable micro-dot paper technology, the Livescribe Pulse Smartpen is significantly more sophisticated than the Oxford Papershow and its 50 per cent extra cost is well justified. This pen has a computer on board, is fitte...

  • As digital pens go, the Livescribe Pulse Smartpen is an unusual proposition. Its focus on linking written notes and recorded audio is genuinely useful, even if the lack of OCR software and the high-price may put off some....

  • If you go to a lot of meetings or presentations the Pulse Smartpen could well be invaluable. The ability to combine the audio and your notes really is great. We showed the Smartpen to a number of fellow meeting-goers and each saw the clear potential t...

  • Abstract:  Just before Christmas I received the LiveScribe 4GB Pulse Pen and it has been my best friend ever since. I use it to take notes, as a voice recorder and I even use it to pass time playing the different mini games available for purchase from the LiveSc...

  • Records audio thats instantly linked to your handwritten notes; digitizes your entire notebook; lets you share notes and audio with friends
  • Pen is a too thick for comfortable extended use; printed notebooks dont work as well as purchased ones; MyScript transcription software needs improvement
  • Some of the Pulse Smartpen’s newest features are a bit underdeveloped, but this digital note-taking device is still by far the best weve ever seen. ...

  • Pen and headphones capture 3D audio and link it to the notes you make on the dot paper. Pen contains other apps like a recorder, calculator, and toy piano. Print your own dot paper (600 dpi printer required). Livescribe Desktop software lets you search yo...
  • No OCR to translate your written notes to plain text. Livescribe Online glitchy for Mac
  • We loved writing with this well-balanced, classy pen, and the powerful Paper Replay functions worked incredibly well. Businesspeople, journalists, students, secretaries, and anyone who takes a lot of notes during talks will find this an invaluable too...
