Digiscribble - Recommended By The Gadget Show

Digital Note Takers are fast becoming popular across the globe, but why? Taking notes certainly aids the note-taker by serving as a memory device for various reasons: a) what they heard/saw are more easily recalled and b) by being able to record their immediate thoughts at the time on the particular subject matter. The mere act of taking notes will increase concentration and attention and will force the information to be processed at a deeper level and to be combined with other previously known information. Psychologists will tell you this will be of great benefit in the process of memorising the information.

While for some it may be found that taking notes is distracting, that you can scribble down even quick notes digitally aids the retrieval process and any future documentation that may need to be produced.

The DIGISCRIBBLE digital note taker is a rather nifty little USB driven gadget that 'copies' your notes and sketches as you produce them with your pen and then transfers to your PC and comes up as text. It may have to learn your handwriting but once this is done, it's going to be a major time saver!

Depending on the setup and software on your computer, these gadgets allow you to write directly to your PC as well.

We see an obvious use for students as the capturing unit is small and lightweight and just clips to the top of your notepad. Take it back home, plug in via the USB port and transfer to the PC.

Find your own uses, mine is just to be able to keep track of my handwritten notes that often get lost, taking notes in meetings etc.

I could have done with one of these at Uni as I usually lost my notes by revision time! Fantastic for recording dates, times for your diary as well.

Great little gadget, remarkable price but now difficult to find as it has been upgraded. Although more expensive, the Livescribe (pictured) is an incredible device and looks great as well! See what the Livescribe 2GB Pulse Smartpen has to offer.

Please note, the 2GB Pulse has been replaced by the Livescribe APX-00002 2GB EFIGS Pulse Smartpen, a little bit more pricey (not much!) but better specs.
