The script recognition program did not recognize me handwriting. As a result I had to edit most of what got picked up. So I returned it for a refund. Was a great idea though.

All the pen allows you to do is write notes on their software and use it as a mouse; if you want to convert it to text, you have to buy their premium software. The pen works quite well, but odds are it won't provide you with all the functionality you want unless you dump more money on it. The mouse works, but I can't imagine using it on a regular basis. I quickly found myself missing both the mouse-wheel and the right mouse button. I can't recommend it.

The only reason I give this 4 instead of 5 stars is the poor quality of the OCR software...it just flat out works poorly. On top of that, the pen only includes the light version of the software - and then nags you to upgrade. That said, I only wanted this device to save handwritten notes, so I can go back to a certain day and look at my notes for that day. So for what I wanted, this works flawlessly. For those who complain about it not picking up handwriting, my suggestion would be to read the manual. You do have to setup correctly the orientation of the device so that it works properly and when attaching to a new sheet of paper, you have have to move the device a bit to get the orientation just write, but other than that it works great. I get the power of a REAL laptop, and most of the functionality of a tablet PC.
