4 of 5 Decent input tool Saturday, November 29, 2008
Don from Brasher Falls, NY  

Once you get this device installed and affixed to paper (which is a little inconvenient, but not a terrible pain), it's a good way to digitize your writing. There are some minor inconveniences - the limits to its detection are discovered on the fly, but once you know the range, staying within that space is quite simple. I also have an io2 pen, which requires special paper, so this is more versatile, except that I'm tethered to my computer.

5 of 5 Excellent Wednesday, August 13, 2008
Sethirayar from Jersey City, NJ  
This item was really excellent, unlike other digital pens you don't need a special writing pad. Everything you write on any paper is captured in the computer screen without even leaving a dot. This product is extremely useful students and teachers.

5 of 5 A True Handwriting Expert Wednesday, September 26, 2007
Commodore Billy from North Fort Myers, FL  
I purchased this item strictly out of curiosity. For the price, I expected an amusing toy. When it arrived, I set it up according to the directions and put it to the test. In handwriting mode, it managed to recognize about 98% of what I wrote. This is truly amazing as many PEOPLE have a hard time reading my handwriting. In hand printing mode, it never skipped a beat. My only concern would be the future availability of the special ball point cartridges (they are quite small, and if I used it a lot, I can see them running out of ink quickly).
