A Must-Have for Teachers!
After exploring various methods and equipment for generating pen-casts for the classroom, the Livescribe 3 Smartpen proves the best. I had the Livescribe Echo pen for the past 3 years and although it worked well enough, the wireless connection of the Livescribe 3 is far easier to use. I would recommend the Livescribe 3 without any reservation whatsoever. Adorama's pricing and prompt (and free!) shipping make shopping for the Livescribe 3 here a no-brainer!
I love the pen.
I was very impressed with all the functions the pen can do. It is extremely useful. I would like to see more user friendly directions on how to do each function

The Livescribe 3 smartpen is designed with the meticulous attention to detail that a premium writing instrument deserves. From the integrated stylus cap, down to the Swiss-made tungsten carbide ballpoint ink cartridge, they have paid close attention to deliver an experience that is worthy of the title of your new favorite pen. But it is the amazing amount of technology packed inside the Livescribe 3 that really delivers the magic. Once you twist the ring to extend the ink cartridge, everything you write is captured by the infrared camera on the pen and stored on the smartpen's built-in memory. Simply connect your smartpen to your iOS or Android device and watch as all your notes are synced to the Livescribe+ mobile app.
