Hi Andy, There are two guys I work with who use them. One is the writer on our dev team - he records every meeting with his pen while taking notes and gets a lot of interesting little details that way. We chuckle sometimes when he says "hold on a sec - I need to reboot my pen" but he's capturing good stuff with it.
Both of the guys using the pen have evolved interesting indexing strategies with the special notebooks the pens use. It's like a real-time IA project for them to configure navigation into content. They've created tables of contents and so on in their notebooks. It's the first time I've seen end users invent their own content navigation into a repository that's half paper and half digital and entirely spontaneous. I have noticed that both of them take deliberate concise notes in a neat hand. Scrawlers/doodlers like me probably would have some trouble with it.
