This latest offering from Logitech also offers ioTags feature, which improves your efficiency by leaps and bound as you can send portions of your handwritten notes directly into your e-mail and calendar applications. The pen battery and memory will satisfy most of your needs. It's faster than handwriting and then typing notes - transferring, correcting, and formatting 20 pages takes about 1.5 hrs each day, instead of many more to type them in. It's user friendly. The training session is easy, and the software pretty much works with a few simple buttons.

The biggest no-no of using this pen is the conversion function. In order to retain your formatting, the program tends to put the text you wrote into a bunch of arbitrary text boxes spread out across the page in a Microsoft Word document so the page is pretty much un-editable. In addition, It takes quite a while to "upload" the documents from the pen to the computer, even with a USB 2.0 port.

The new-look, black-and-silver Logitech io2 Digital Pen, available in Europe and in the U.S. beginning in May, is more affordable than ever at a suggested retail price of $149.99 in the U.S. It is extremly portable and can be carried around in your notebook case or breifcase or pocket.
