Livescribe
the Livescribe Echo Smartpen is a ballpoint pen which, when used with Livescribe paper, records both what you write and the sound around you.
After you've taken your notes, you can connect the Smartpen to a computer to download an interactive PDF file. This contains all of your recorded written notes, synchronized with the audio recorded at the time you wrote them. It can then be shared via Canvas, Google apps, or elsewhere.
