SMS And Email Pen
D:Scribe is a digital fountain pen that allows users to send SMS and email messages from paper. Just write out the message and circle the person’s name to send. This does away with a keypad and allows you to focus on communicating in a more personal way from anywhere as long as you have a bluetooth enabled phone and a surface to write on. The pen also records everything you write which can be accessed on a computer. Of course for the creative peeps, if writing doesn’t suit your fancy, the D:Scribe also works with genius and not so genius drawings of brilliance.
The design is loosely based on a quill and inkwell where by the quill is the writing apparatus and the inkwell is an electromagnetic induction charger.
Once a message is sent, the status is displayed on the built-in OLED screen. The designers have also expanded its capabilities beyond that of messaging. Should your home electronics and appliances be bluetooth enabled, you could potentially program the pen to input commands by writing in the air. A little abstract but lets pretend this idea is more a patent for possibilities.

Really QL!! Can I write in ink with this pen?
i!n
Fi! It is only concept, as I see.
Russians three years ago have made working prototype ShelPen!
They can’t find money in Russia, otherwise the ShelPen should sale everywhere…
Great for tricking someone into giving you a copy of their signature!
Can it record signatures? There are a couple of guys I know that would love this kind of thing.
Considering I much prefer fountain pens to anything else, the pertinent question for me is: what kind of nib would it use? I prefer gold or titanium over everything else, and I would be willing to spend the money to that regard.
What about a pen that just looks like a pen and e-mails everything written with it and captures signatures without the owner ever knowing. What a great idea.
How can i buy it?
I really want it
This was predicted in that 1967 A.D. 1999 video. Pretty cool, even if it is 9
Dear developers, indeed, quite amazing cellphone novelties. Yet nothing REALLY new seems to be around the bend, aside from their childish fantasies. When will the smallest mobil phone ever, the cerebron - the whole on a tiny chip built into the brains?
Dear developers, amazing cellphone novelties. But nothing REALLY new, aside from childish fantasies. Where is the cerebron - the whole phone on a chip built into the brain? Controlled by a combination of mental & electronic signal thru semantic eye blinks?
