yes actually i've heard of pens like that although i haven't been following them very closely, i had the impression that they were really only interested in handwriting recognition, which is only medium interesting to me (even if i have to manually enter a few notes sometimes, i do type really fast) ; also it was a pen which could only be used with special paper (the paper had a printed dot grid which helped the pen to identify letterforms). but the sketching capabilities and different nibs and paper textures would be AMAZING. do you know the names of the ones who are working on stroke sensitivity etc. ?
i've sent the article to Garth Conboy
you never know.
i admit i would miss my pens.
