At the DEMO exhibition in Palm Desert, Calif., Livescribe on Monday debuted its much-anticipated Pulse smartpen. Technically a computer within a pen, the Pulse smartpen simultaneously captures handwriting and audio, and synchronizes them together. The device is also a general purpose computer with rich I/O capabilities and a Java development environment, Livescribe said. “Pulse is a new type of mobile computer that supports the four basic modes of human communication — reading, writing, speaking and listening,” said Livescribe CEO Jim Marggraff.
