I was underwhelmed by the Livescribe 3 and its need for special paper, and some initial setup hassles with the Smartpen left me irked. I'll be honest: I didn't expect to like the Smartpen 2. (The next pricing level for a single smart pen is $119, £75 or AU$135, though you can also get a two-pack for $209, £130 or AU$240.) This is far less risky than most crowdfunded products, as this one is already in production and ready to ship this month. However, if you preorder via the Indiegogo campaign, there's still time to score one for $109, £67 or AU$125. The Smartpen 2 will go on sale at the end of October for a list price of $170 (available to ship internationally, that converts to about £105 and AU$195). It's a bit more gear to carry, but the design is very travel-friendly.
Doing so would block the receiver's IR sensor.Įven so, I like how the receiver and pen tuck neatly away into a triangular dock/charging cradle, one protected by a nifty magnetic cover similar to the iPad's Smart Cover. Although the receiver is smart enough to know when you're starting a new, blank page (and has a blank-page button if you prefer to force the issue), it doesn't allow you to flip up the pages of, say, a legal pad. It's also the Smartpen's own form of hassle. That's how it's able to work around Livescribe's special-paper requirement. Specifically, it stores notes in a small receiver that clips to the top of your paper, notebook, or whatever. When the pen isn't paired with a phone, tablet, or computer, it stores your notes in memory for later uploading.
I could also route notes directly to Evernote, Dropbox, and the like. A few taps later, the app converted handwritten notes into text. I paired it with an iPad, started jotting notes on some scrap paper, and watched as their digital equivalent appeared almost instantaneously onscreen. Rather than rehash the details, all of which are spelled out on both Equil's site and the Indiegogo page, allow me to share my experiences with a preproduction Smartpen 2. Soon to finish a highly successful round of Indiegogo funding (nearly $400,000 pledged on a $50,000 goal), this smart stylus can capture notes written on just about anything: a Post-It, a legal pad, a Moleskine, even just a stack of scrap paper. Livescribe is perhaps the best-known company in this still-nascent category the company's Livescribe 3 can send handwritten notes directly to your phone or tablet. However, it has one fairly major limitation: It requires special paper. As you write, the pen not only produces ink on paper, but also captures your notes digitally for storage, sharing, and review. And whether you're a student or not, sometimes it's just easier (and preferable) to scribble - especially when you're standing up.įor those reasons and more, a smart pen can be a decidedly handy tool. A recent study suggested that students who take notes on a laptop don't retain nearly as much information as those who take notes with a pen and paper.
