This Livescribe Pen is a very good choice for those who prefer a ballpoint pen-size writing tool. It is a new product released just a few weeks ago and the free app at Livescribe is easy to use.

Personally, I liked trying it out with my iPhone and it works perfectly. You write your message and then have it transcribe to text. So simply. No messing around … just write, transcribe it, and it’s done.

The package is “Open Box” because I just had to see the new pen. It works well.

You will need to write on Livescribe N-Coded paper (which is included in the “bundle”), brand new, 4 notebooks still in the wrapper, A5 notebooks. Charging cord is included.

I used my first Livescribe many years ago. I think I have owned them all, but this one is simple and easy to use. Write your thoughts on Livescribe paper, see it transfer to the iPhone (or Android), see it quickly create your message in text. You can then handle your messages as you normally would. Right now, they are recommending its use with a cell phone. Makes good sense for all the short notes I write.
