Very cool things

This digital pen sounds so cool!  I love to write, but I do not always like to write on the computer.  I was just at MutMee this morning and Julian, one of the owners, sits next to me with his breakfast.  I was writing some notes in my little spiral notebook that I keep with me everywhere so when random thoughts worth remembering later come to me, I can jot things down.  Julian looks over at me and says "Its so nice to see someone with a pen and paper writing.  You just hardly see that anymore."  Then he looked closer and saw that I had pages and pages filled with writing.  He said he couldnt remember when he wrote a full page of anything by hand. haha!!! 

I think the digital pen would be the best of both worlds.  I have not even bothered looking at the price.  It is cool, for sure, but it can't beat a click top Bic or mechanical pencil in price. heh!

The pulse with 1GB looks really cool. I can see now this is going to be added to my kids 'list of school supplies' by the time they enter high school. Just like a 'graphic calculator' will still be required Difference is, I can see the pen being of use long after school is over...

I like that you can tap the pen and it picks up from wherever you tapped it.  That is actually pretty neat.

Really great. It says it costs $149, but I like it a lot. As a writer I try to write things by hand occasionally, and since you never know when the creative bug will bite, sometimes I have to. Good find!
