Hi Luke,
In short, it rocks. It’s one of those products that you’ll find you cannot do without in meetings. Be sure to ask client for permission to record before you use the record function. Not only is it polite, it’s the law (well it is in Aust.) There is so much to like with it. One can only write so fast. The rest is recorded. I find that because the microphone is unobtrusive, clients seem to relax more about being recorded and almost forget about it. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
Cheers,

Dan

It amazes me everyday at how the small the Internet world really is. Brendon, Kudos for providing some free promotion and consulting to Mr. Smartpen. I am now looking into purchasing the product. I never knew it existed until your post.

Hi Brendon,
Thanks for the post – fair point re adwords though I noticed you did a global search – we rank pretty high on organic results for Australian searches. But this fact doesn’t matter as you’re correct that the best search results are a mix of organic content with adwords.

We also have a Facebook account – http://www.facebook.com/livescribe.australia.

As an aside we also use Scout Labs (www.scoutlabs.com) to monitor the whole social media space. This allows us to see globally what people are saying about Livescribe. This is all part of our comprehensive social media strategy.

Thanks again and I look forward to helping out with accessories in the future.

Mr Smartpen
