The Digital Tablet & Pen Revolutionize Writing and Drawing

The digital tablet and pen like the Livescribe 2GB Pulse Smartpen (APA-00002) , are to the notebook and sketchbook, as the PC is to the typewriter. Available in a wide variety of styles, types, and sizes, these tablets take many forms throughout the digital world. While your local delivery man has been using a form of the digital tablet to instantly record your signature at verification of delivery for years, consumers have just recently begun to realize the benefits of incorporating these extremely user friendly devices into their everyday lives.


Technology is improving at an amazing rate. It was just a matter of time for technology to advance to the point of creating a better, more efficient means of capturing our ideas and art than mere pen and paper. The popularity of digital tablets is growing among people who have to use their computer for a more creative function than simply word processing and creating spreadsheets.

Using a digital pen, the digital tablet easily records everything from your signature, to your notes and lists, to original drawings made directly to your computer. The usable space on each tablet varies from three to five inches up to a standard eight and a half by eleven inches. The term “usable space” simply means the flat area that you can write or draw on where your creation will be picked up by the computer.

In addition to the writing space, many electronic tablets also offer short-cut keys in order to make your experience as user friendly as possible. These short cut keys are preset when you purchase the tablet, so you cannot change them, however they correspond to the programs that work with each tablet. For instance, a digital tablet that works best with Microsoft OneNote will have short cut keys for OneNote, other Microsoft programs, the Internet, and various other aspects of Vista. These tablets make it easy for you to have the tablet plugged into your computer and work with it without having to flip back and forth constantly between the tablet and your keyboard. Another bonus of these tablets is that you can watch your creation come to life on your computer screen in real time as they transfer directly from the tablet to the computer in most cases.

For anyone who favors portability above instant results, there are many different digital tablet options that allow you to take them with you. You can write or draw on them, and then transfer your work to your computer as soon as you arrive back at your desk. This fantastic function is great for anyone who dreads feeling chained to their laptop computer.

Digital tablets are a great minor investment for anyone who is searching to make their computer more creativity-friendly. They can be used for anything as simple as precise movements of your cursor to drawing your next great work of art in the digital medium while using an exact instrument, such as a pen or pencil. These are fantastic tools for anyone who works frequently in a creative field where precise drawings, signatures, or even simply portability is of the utmost importance.
