Livescribe Introduces Next-generation Aegir Smartpens with New Plug-in for Microsoft Office and Cross-platform Companion ApplicationsNew smartpen designs, including Blue Dolphin and Black Dolphin Professional Edition, are available in special value-added bundles SAN FRANCISCO, May 9, 2019 /CNW/ -- Livescribe, the global leader in digital writing and smartpen technology, today introduces its next-generation Aegir smartpen, now available in two new designs - Blue Dolphin and an exclusive Black Dolphin Professional edition. The smartpens, slim as a traditional ballpoint pen but loaded with powerful technology, are powered by the performance-enhanced Livescribe+ Apps for Mobile and a new Desktop application. The solution also features a new Livescribe plug-in for Microsoft Office. The plug-in increases productivity and efficiency by allowing users to print any document with the Livescribe dot pattern, which when used with Aegir pens, will enable mark-up and annotation. While research shows that handwriting notes instead of typing them improves information retention and creativity, it's also true that handwritten notes on traditional paper often get lost, damaged, or can be difficult to read. Livescribe Smartpens, in combination with its cross-platform applications, help to overcome these traditional challenges by instantly digitizing handwritten notes and making them available across multiple devices. Notes can then be retained, archived and easily shared in multiple formats. In addition to ten hours of battery life, the smartpens and Livescribe+ application also include the following features and benefits:
The Livescribe+ app for Android is available for download today and the iOS and Windows Desktop Apps will be available for download on May 15. The macOS Desktop App will be available later this month. The affordable new smartpens can be pre-ordered now and will be available for purchase in North America, Europe, Oceania, and South Korea next week and in other international markets subsequently. Pricing starts at $99.95 for the standard edition. Education bundles, which include the standard edition Aegir smartpen, two Livescribe lined notebooks and aDNA stickers, are available for $109.95. Professional edition bundles including the professional edition smartpen, a lined journal and aDNA stickers, are available for $119.95. For Educational pricing, contact our education store. To obtain bulk pricing or inquire about reseller opportunities, contact us. The new Aegir smartpens and accessories can be purchased by visiting our online store (US customers) or Amazon (global), with other retail locations being added soon.
