Next Steps
Each pen is purchased with a specific amount of memory
1 GB, 2GB, 4GB and more
Each pen can also be used to replay what is in the notebook until everything has either been downloaded and/or cleaned off the pen.
Therefore there are two ways to replay what was recorded: via download to the computer, or directly from the pen.

How can this help in a library?
Many school libraries that have programs for their disabled patrons. These libraries have become the main source for educating their teachers and students on items such as smartpens.
If the library knows how to use the tool, they help educate their community to be able to better use the resources available.
