The Demo Conference is about to get underway (you can watch a live broadcast here, registration required) and already the showcase businesses are talking up their new products. One such company is LiveScribe. They will be showing off their digitizing pen. Like other pens on the market, this one is built from Anoto's pen technology (requires special paper with microdots for pen alignment), yet it captures and synchronizes sound with your notes much as OneNote does. The pen, which is being targetted to college students and business professionals, will reportedly hit the market in March and retail for under $200.
CNet has more details here along with a video demo.
Will the LiveScribe pen take off? Possibly. I'd sure like to try one. I wonder if there are any specialty markets where this type of pen makes lots of sense? Bet there are.
