The pen is bulky, but I don’t write a lot anymore so any pen feels uncomfortable for me now I kind of got used to it. I bought the extra journal notebooks that look like moleskines, I think that’s the reason why I use it to so much, those are easier to carry around.

My only real complaint with the pen is the limited export options from the software. There’s really no export, but you can copy a page and paste it as a jpg in another application. I do this with my class notes, pasting to Evernote, which can search for some of my handwriting, but not nearly as good as the Livescribe software.

I actually bought it a few months ago. I have to say that I use the recording feature less than I thought I would, but otherwise I use the pen all the time. I think the best feature about the pen is the search in the software, and how well it recognizes my handwriting.
