Have you seen the new digital pens?

I just came across this. Some of you may already know about them. I may have to get one. Here's the link...

The Z-pen sounds awesome...

But why is it only for Windows? What about Linux & Mac users?!

We need more cross-platform software... :(

WOW.......never heard of them. Great technology for writers!!!

I would guess that would be next.

Something I thought of... it'd probably take just as long to download your notes and fix all the mistakes as it does to type them up.

Plus, handwriting stuff and then typing it up allows you to almost make it a second draft, since I edit my writing as I type it up.

But if handwriting recognition improves, I'll just use a touchscreen and write directly on the computer... that is... if my laptop will have touchscreen... still haven't gotten it yet! :mad:
