Stores and converts handwritten memos and sketches to a PC for easy editing
IRVINE, Calif., March 3 - Avid note takers can now leave their laptops at home and store handwritten notes and drawings to later upload onto a PC in digital text with IOGEAR's Mobile Digital Scribe.
Ideal for students and medical or legal professionals who need to take down information when on-the-go, the product's pen works on any paper and uses standard ink refills.

The regular pen size and weight give users a comfortable writing experience.
Whether in class or a meeting, the Mobile Digital Scribe helps individuals retain all longhand and eases the fear of losing important details scribbled on scraps of paper by safely transferring information to a computer.
