about
Pen Input
It's About Having the
Freedom to Be Creative!
"Tired of being a slave to your
keyboard and mouse? Well, I have a proposition
to make you... try replacing your mouse with our Flair II Pen
Tablet GT-504, and buy yourself a DigiMemo Personal Tablet.
Take notes on your Tablet, add to them on board your PC with the
Flair II, use it as a mouse, to save on your wrists, and to
doodle, draw and write using Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop
and other applications. Then see if you don't feel as if a
tremendous burden weren't lifted off your shoulders! Free, at
last...!!"
-- Dr. Jack A. Shulman, CEO CompAmerica, July 4, 2006
Computer-based Handwriting and Drawing Input had, prior to the
advent of the DigiMemo ($89.99),
and the new Flair II Pen Tablets,
the GT-302 ($38.99) and the
GT-504 ($48.99), always been through of as
"the rich man's game", relegated to the high priced signature
capture and large tablets of the 80's, and 90's, products which
were, frankly, too expensive for the personal user... here's why...
The Problem with Pen Devices 'Til Now...
The
graphics tablet devices of the 80's and 90's were bulky, generally
involved some form of irregular surface, and a large stylus, that
was difficult to deal with. They were very expensive and required
special software. Alternatives such as using a Mouse or a
Trackpad (touchpad) had bad results, because using one's finger tip
or a mouse to trace a precisely drawn line or a line of handwritten
text simply does not product the desired device. Even Tablet
PCs are often an inappropriate solution in many cases, they cost
upwards of $2000 (CompAmerica introduced on for $999 in 2001, btw,
trying to vie for low cost pen input) and if you dropped one, well,
basically you were out your entire investment. Also,
writing in 1:1 form on a large touch screen, or 1.15:1 form using an
orbital mouse, was ungainly, it requires a lot of arm movements, and
parallax (the variation between what you see on the screen and the
movement of your stylus) can lead to bad results and fatigue.
Lack of resistance from the plastic surface, the way the stylus
interacted requiring long strokes, left people cold.
Along came the DigiMemo.
The DigiMemo has changed the
way IT departments are looking at handling data input, it has people
for the very first time walking around with a tablet on which they
can write which if they drop and drop kick, the IT department is out
a mere $89 and not $2500. An Affordable Loss if dropped! Yet
it's light weight and easy to hold on to, with it's Portfolio case,
so one probably won't drop it anyway, and it usually survives!
Furthermore, they have capacity: you can store 999 documents in one,
and even juggle Flash memory cards! It's natural design allows
a regular ink pen design (with wireless features to talk to the
DigiMemo) to write on a regular pad of paper. The natural resistance
of the pall point ink pen and the paper, and the ergonomically
designed Wireless DigiMemo Pen
allow minimizing of your hand and arm movements and reuse of the
movements everyone has already learned from writing on paper in the
first place!
The light weight and tough hide of the
DigiMemo, 100 hour battery
life, and the 14 month battery life of the Pen, just enhance one's
ability to concentrate one's thoughts, ideas and creativity right
down to the tip of the Pen where the ink meets the paper, without
any distractions! Try and do that with a keyboard and mouse?
I believe "keyboard distress" and "mouse distress" are two enormous
blocking factors associated with modern personal computers that
stand in the way of productivity. Yet,
DigiMemo has neither!
Add DigiMemo Handwriting
Recognition to the Pot
With
the public interest in DigiMemo
at an all time high, we added "MyScript Notes" and "Evernote Plus"
with handwriting conversion to typed text to the boiling over public
interest. Now it was possible to write a book on your
DigiMemo, or do Forms, translate to Typed Text and submit it to your
Publisher or your IT System. Professional presentations broke out
overnight. Amazing new capabilities, that surpassed the
keyboard for sheer volume of productivity.
Then, enhance your PC with a Flair
II Pen Tablet
While having a DigiMemo was
changed the way we record information, having software to turn out
typed text and smoothed drawings from your memos, in your PC, makes
an even greater difference. And: programs like Photoshop,
Quark, Word, PowerPoint, all wanted MORE, MORE HANDWRITING, MORE
DRAWING.
What
to do? How about giving your PC stationary ability to enter
Handwriting, Drawings and even provide such a Pen an efficient work
surface AND three selection buttons so you can control your PC
without switching hands or picking up your mouse?
Voila' !!
