Logitech to introduce Digital Bluetooth Pen
Posted by Ekkie Tepsupornchai in "NEWS" @ 02:00 PM
"Logitech has announced plans to offer business solution providers a Bluetooth wireless technology enabled version of the Logitech io2 Digital Pen. According to the company a digital pen with Bluetooth technology, used in combination with a wireless handheld communication device featuring Bluetooth technology can help an organization's mobile workforce more efficiently gather, transmit and share important data in real time <...> industries such as sales, field services, insurance, financial services, healthcare and government regulation are reliant on their mobile workforces' ability to collect accurate data in the field and share it quickly."
I've seen a handful of companies enter the market with digital pen products, though Logitech will be the first I've seen to use Bluetooth with their pen. In fact, for Logitech, this isn't their first digital pen as seen as they have a lineup of products surrounding their 1st generation digital pen. This is advertised as a "business solutions" device, so before anyone comments on how useful this is to the common consumer, consider the target market. Anyone out there who rely on digital pens for work or otherwise? Let us know.
