Webware has man interesting article regarding the future of PEN-PCs::

Here is one good reason that I take a ballpoint and a pad of paper to interviews, instead of a PC: so I never have to say to the person I’m talking to, “Wait, let me reboot my pen.”

But that’s what Jim Marggraff, CEO of Livescribe (site may not be live yet), told me last week when he was firing up a demo of his company’s new product, the “smart pen” that he’ll be showing off at the D5 conference tomorrow.

There’s not a ton of Web 2.0 in this product. There will be a site for storing written and audio notes, and you’ll be able to share your recorded writing, including audio and animation, with others. The site will also be used as a market for applications written on the Livescribe platform. Another clever idea: you can give people business cards printed on dot paper, and if they have a Livescribe pen they can send you a note simply by writing on the back of the card. When the pen connects to its PC software, the note will be transmitted to the card’s owner. As Marggraff said, when a person writes on his business card, “Those are my dots.”
