While I was cleaning out an old computer bag the other day I rediscovered my C-800 C-Pen.  I can’t tell you how happy I was to find this thing.  I thought I had lost it for good.  I charged it and started using it right away.  With it’s ability to quickly capture text while I’m reading, I tend to read faster and when I’m done I have a great like text file with all the quotes and page numbers from the book.  It’s a great reference.

Although, it typically uses a serial port.  I found that it has an IR port as well so I use that to link it up with my tablet.  It works great and gets the job done.
