Like the Livescribe Smartpens, once the pages are in Evernote they are completely searchable. Then, using my iPhone Evernote’s special Page Camera setting in the Evernote Camera function, I’m able to snap a picture and have the notes uploaded directly to Evernote. I am now able to take notes in the Evernote Moleskin using any pen or pencil. More recently Evernote introduced their special Moleskin and Page Camera functionality.

The only real downside, other than the price of admission, is the fact that you need to carry the large electronic pen and special paper with you in order to make use of the technology Lifescribe offers. It works beautifully, and it is a terrific productivity tool. The Sky enables you to wirelessly sync your notes to Evernote over a WiFi network. Most recently the need to dock the pen was eliminated by the introduction of the company’s latest offerings, the Livescribe Sky Smartpen. The Livescribe Smartpen allowed me to capture of both hand writing and voice notes and bring them over to my computer by connecting the pen to the Mac. Note-taking Compromises: The Livescribe Smartpen and Evernote Page Camera I finally resolved the issue through two pieces of technology.

Yes, there have been some software attempts at palm rejection, but they stink. The lack of palm rejection meant that a southpaw like me couldn’t do anything legible in the writing department. While the iPad was the best tablet I had ever seen, it was not the device for taking handwritten notes. It let me have a tablet again still, everything wasn’t perfect.

I looked at the MacBook conversion kit that turned a Mac notebook into a tablet, but it was too rich for my blood. When I made the move to Macs, I missed having a productivity tablet. Still, it was the best productivity tool available at the time. They were heavy, they ran hot, they were pricey, and most of the time they got lousy battery life. There were, however, some key issues with pretty much every one of the Tablet PC’s I used. During the time I used a Windows tablet PC, I could also be seen in meetings happily scribbling along on my computer. I also did some voice recognition on it, but that tended to have mixed results due to the actual hardware. It was a terrific productivity tool that allowed me to use one computer for both typing and capturing hand written notes. Before we get into the review though, let me step back and give a bit of history.Īs I have previously noted here on the site, my best experience with Windows came in the form of using a Windows Tablet PC. It is an intriguing device, and Targus was kind enough to send an iNotebook for review. We saw the Targus iNotebook at CES last month.
