In love with all things Apple? Well, why keep it to just the computer world? Branch out into low-tech mediums with the iPen flashdrive. Remember writing on paper? I hardly do, but this was very common practice only a few years ago. This device will help us to rediscover the glory of ink and to improve our once fantastic penmanship.
Because it is linked to Apple, the iPen has to have some techy feature about it. Rather than just being a writing implement, the iPen flashdrive is also a USB key. This is good for keeping a backup of that essay in case the ink runs dry mid-sentence.
