<div id="smartTemplate4-template">Hi folks,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Been working with the Livescribe Aeger for several months now.
<br>
</div>
<div>
<div>The pen is nice and light. pretty :D Holds a charge for a
couple of days. Recordings are made from your smartphone. Nice
app integration; handwriting conversion (even mine!)-to-text is
great! Create reminders fairly easy. To integrate with your
computer, evernote or other is recommended. It's been a while
since I've used the other Livescribe pens to be able to compare.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
One client really likes the new Aegir with the planner, sticky
notes, etc, and syncs well with Evernote Premium.<br>
<div>
<div>Their new paper planner has become my planner but doesn't
integration well with a virtual planner. Company says they're
working on a better way to have the planner sync with iCal,
Google, etc. Moleskin has some "smart" paper writing system
like this that is apparently overly complex but can sync a
calender; but I have no personal experience with Moleskin,
beyond research into these methods of notating.</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best wishes ;)<br>

models?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Though I don’t yet have hands-on
experience with Livescribe’s new Aegir smartpen models, I
am familiar with how they work and how they differ from
the Echo and Livescribe 3 models.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Other than the obvious physical
differences (the Aegirs are thinner, lighter, and more
colorful), the Aegir smartpen operates conceptually like
the Livescribe 3 model. Whereas the Echo records audio
with its built-in microphone and stores both recorded
audio and notes on the pen, both the Livescribe 3 and
Aegir have no microphone — both must link via Bluetooth to
a mobile device (iOS or Android) and use its mic to record
audio.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Both the Livescribe 3 and Aegir also
stream their captured notes in real time to the <i><u>Livescribe+
app</u></i> on the linked mobile device; with the
Echo, notes and audio are uploaded later to the <i><u>Echo
Desktop software</u></i> on either a Mac or Windows
PC.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">From Livescribe+, handwritten notes can
be separated into “snippets” (individual notes) and even
converted to e-text (assuming decent penmanship).
Individual snippets or an entire page or notebook can be
exported to OneNote, Evernote, or other apps. One place
where the Aegir will surpass the Livescribe 3 is that
Livescribe has promised to release a Windows desktop
version of the Livescribe+ app (Mac version to follow).
Currently, Livescribe+ is only available on iOS and
Android.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Lastly, all three models still need the
Livescribe/Anoto microdot paper to work (available in many
different forms).. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here’s a comparison chart for all three
smartpens:<o:p></o:p></p>
