You could lose your files
Google "Unable to access your database folders" for a serious problem with this pen, or rather with the PC software used to search your notes.
Buggy Pen
I bought the pen, took it home and started to work through the tutorials. It rebooted continuously and gave me an error code. I went online to look at the knowledge base and there were all sorts of articles about this error code (3). I tried everything except updating the firmware, because to update the firmware the desktop application must first find the internet. Every other program on my computer can find the internet except the Livewire Desktop. Not only that, the software wasn't written following typical window standards. BUYER BEWARE!!
The Pen is Fantastic, The Software is 1/2 done.
So you already know the pen is wonderful, amazing, fantastic and does so much. Clearly created by fanatical geniuses. Unfortunately the desktop software is not quite there yet. In my opinion, the biggest flaw is that you can't group your pages together into binders or folders. I have a 200 page notebook with sessions weekly from business meetings, classes, lectures and interviews. If I wanted to have a folder labeled "candidate interviews" and move all my pages into that folder, I can't. This is a serious flaw. There's no indexing system for your work. So if you have hundreds of pages on your desktop you cannot tag them, index them, group them or associate them together in any way. Clearly 1/2 done.
The other missing functionality is character recognition and translation to text. This would have been a killer feature if it were included but it doesn't seem to be here and it's certainly not integrated.
Wouldn't it be nice if those two things were part of this software?
Finally, someone else asked for this too, why isn't there a clip on the side of the pen for two reasons; one so it doesn't roll and two so it can be clipped to the inside of my shirt pocket!
So don't let that stop you from getting this amazing device but don't expect to get these functions in the provided software.
