LiveScribe - interactive smartpen
Bernie Dodge of Web Quest fame just twittered this. This is an interesting concept. Livescribe has developed a paper-based computing platform that merges a smartpen, paper, software applications, and development tools. According to their web site this interesting tool will be available online beginning of 2008. "It will cost less than $200-00USD". I have never paid that much for a pen. It would be terrible thing to lose it. Might be an idea to invent something to prevent one from ever losing the pen.
There is additional dot paper that the company states will be available at prices comparable to standard paper products. I shall keep an eye on this. Is there anything similar to this already on the market?

Don't be too concerned about losing the pens - we have many clients using the pen and they don't seem to lose them - they get treated like a mobile phone - so things with a value like that tend to be looked after a bit better than an ordinary biro.

Thanks for the comments. I feel a little uncomfortable about the the YouTube video but there it is. I chose not to censor.
My post attracted two adverts! Almost like spam! Another versions of the video is here.
