Any modern laser printer (>= 600DPI) can augment sheets of paper with the dot pattern. However, the companies owning the intellectual property has not provided tools to make this easy. If there were more software that could automatically augment your word documents, say, with the Anoto pattern... then this could really take off.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[RY]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 30th 2007 4:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Livescribe shows off Leapfrog Fly-esque pen computer for grown-ups]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/30/livescribe-shows-off-leapfrog-fly-esque-pen-computer-for-grown-u/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/30/livescribe-shows-off-leapfrog-fly-esque-pen-computer-for-grown-u/</guid><description><![CDATA[MEGA COOL!<br><br>Screw the $15k virtual white board for hand drawing stuff, I'll use this and just e-mail everyone what I sketched!<br><br>Brilliant!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 30th 2007 4:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Livescribe shows off Leapfrog Fly-esque pen computer for grown-ups]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/30/livescribe-shows-off-leapfrog-fly-esque-pen-computer-for-grown-u/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/30/livescribe-shows-off-leapfrog-fly-esque-pen-computer-for-grown-u/</guid><description><![CDATA[you need the special paper. and the like 3000 million dollar SDK if you want to actually use the sensor data in realtime.  if the people who keep licensing this tech out dont make something the hackers can play with, no one will use pen based input ever.<br><br>i swear to god you primitive screw head mortals, open the frigging data or PLEASE DIE.  i'm so tired of having to ignore all these great pens that i really want to buy.  but without the realtime data its soo pointless.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[rektide]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 30th 2007 4:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Livescribe shows off Leapfrog Fly-esque pen computer for grown-ups]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/30/livescribe-shows-off-leapfrog-fly-esque-pen-computer-for-grown-u/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/30/livescribe-shows-off-leapfrog-fly-esque-pen-computer-for-grown-u/</guid><description><![CDATA[Even with the special paper I'd buy one of these *IF* they weren't so honkin' big!

If there is one thing I could add, it would be to press a button and record voice memo's without having to use the paper. I have often phoned my office and told them to leave a message on my desk to remind me to do something on my return. Maybe this could be added on the newer version.   ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Russell Watkins]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 19th 2008 5:11PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
