Tun Dr.M : Smart Pen



I'll be honest, the Smartpen concept is one that I had a hard time grasping. I didn't understand why a person wouldn't just take a laptop into a classroom and type their notes. Then, headlines on campuses banning laptops in classrooms started circulating the internet. Now it makes more sense.The new Lightscribe Pulse Smartpen, which looks like a pen so it won't get banned, is capable of recording hours of lectures while simultaneously digitizing your handwriting. That way, you can visually go over your notes while listening to the lecture at the same time.The Lightscribe Pulse comes in two Smartpen configurations. the 1GB version will get you 100 hours of audio and 16000 digitized pages, while the 2GB version will get you double that.
