Nothing beats the mind-to-hand connection of taking notes with pen and paper. At the same time, digital notes are superior in a number of ways: They take up no space, they don’t get lost, and they’re clean and legible no matter how bad your handwriting is.

Why not combine the best of both?

That’s exactly what SyncPen 2 does. It’s the bridge between traditional note-taking and digital, editable notes. A motion-tracking sensor on the inside turns everything you write into digital text, so your notes and doodles instantly become useful to all your other electronic tools.

It comes with a 10-inch LCD writing pad, which lets you take notes in different colors. It also enables other activities, like sending notes as an email, collaborating with partners, even recording audio alongside your text. It’s multilingual, too, detecting 66 different languages that it automatically imports to text, Word docs, PDFs, JPGs and other formats. This is the ultimate note-taking tool.
