Livescribe Pulse - First Look
Well, I decided it would be better for all if my first post actually had some level of meaningful content - as tempting as it was to meaninglessly ramble for a few pages.
So lets check out a simply amazing new device I picked up yesterday - the 'Livescribe Pulse Digital Pen'. Sounds kinda lame right? - A digital pen? What do I take you all for? Some kind of lame half inspector gadget, half james bond wanna be? Simply put, no. This thing is simply incredible. It will completely revolutionize the way you take notes in almost any situation.
But what is it? What the hell is a digital pen?
Well, simply put, it is a scanner, digital voice recorder, and catalogue creation device all in one. This bad boy enables the user to record in any environment while taking notes. The pen syncronizes the audio recording with the notes you're writing at any given point - for example; you are taking notes in a lecture, and write down 'Weimar Repulic collapse', but miss out a few details. You can go back and listen to the audio recording at that very point, simply by tapping that hand written note with your pen - it will play back to you exactly what was being said at the precise moment you were writing those words.
The pen will also take a digital image of your handwritten notes, to be uploaded and archived on your computer, along with the audio recordings. You can then search your notes for specific words or phrases on the computer - so if you come back 6months later and cant remember what lecture or date the Weimar Republic was covered, you just search for the key words in the desktop software, and it will find where you have written those words in your notes. Pretty neat huh?!?!
But you know what they say, a picture is worth 1000 words, and a video is worth about 30 pictures per second - so check back soon for a full video review of this simply incredible device!
