We are a technologically advanced generation. However, not everyone in this day and age is good with typing, even though it�s almost a necessity to function in modern society. For those of you out there who miss your pencil and the ability to write, the IRISnotes digital pen is going to become your new best friend.

All you have to do is write, and a mobile note taker will capture that and convert it into text that can be edited from there. Pick a piece of paper, and place the receiver in the corner to capture your words. The best part about this pen is that it also uses normal ink refills.

This 1.0 version recognizes 22 different languages, and can store 100 pages of notes. It�s compatible with Windows 7, Vista, Windows XP, or a Windows 2000 operating system. If you get the executive version, you can get an additional 4 languages and it would be compatible with a Mac OS 10.5 or better. The 1.0 version will only set you back about $100, which is really cheap if you take into account the amount of time you�re going to save not pecking at the keyboard.
