- DEMO Says
- Nearly a year ago, Livescribe gave the world a sneak peek at its Smartpen…and that’s just about all anyone saw. We’ve brought Livescribe to DEMO to take a second look at this product, which is more than ink capture. Livescribe is a content creation tool. It is a platform for animated story telling. It is a marketplace for curriculum. It is ideas come alive.
