Hi there,

Are you referring to the digital pen and paper technology?

If so, neither of the Logitech, Nokia or Magicomm pens come with drivers for Mac so can only be used on Windows PC's.

The only Mac option which I know of is the Livescribe, http://www.livescribe.com/en-gb/ but I've never used this pen before.

Hope it helps in some way.

Do you mean a pen drive or USB stick?

thanks uint32 for the above reply.
that is exactly what he's interested in (I think).
have away and ordered it with some of the digital paper from amazon and hopefully it will be here on time.
thanks for your help

Pentel airpen works for mac and windows. I've had a play of it in the shops (abroad) and seems good but can't tell you any further than the fact that I quite liked it!

Sorry - I've been looking for it online but can't find it being sold in the UK...
