Customer Review: I-Pen so much better than the reviews
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was reading all the reviews for the I-Pen I read the good and the bad. The good ones sounded like salesmen hawking their product and the bad ones sounded like it was the worst product ever made. Well, I needed a pen and the price was right so I went ahead and got one. One of the better decisions I've ever made.
It works beautifully. I am able to write, draw, paint and use it as a mouse without any problem. I don't know what all the carping was about in the bad reviews- I signed a PDF document and it worked just fine, I draw digitally with my programs, it is amazingly fast and accurate in its movements and I was using it to draw and as a mouse before loading in the drivers, so it's practically idiot-proof.
I'd recommend this to anyone who gets tired of using a mouse. This I-pen is less tiring and easier to use, not at all awkward to right-click. And it's way cheaper than a Wacom.
Buy it. Try it. You can't go too wrong with the price.
Customer Review: Surpassed Expectations

I have been wanting to get a pen / stylus for drawing on my PC for quite some time now. I kept looking at the tablet / stylus ones and was surprised at the cost. Then I saw this, and figured that even if it didn't work well, the price was worth it. Well I am happy to say that I love this thing. A wireless version might be good, but the wire for this comes out of the top, far enough away from everything that it hasn't become an issue at all. I like how it feels to move using the pen instead of the mouse. You even get extra tips (although I'll bet I never have to replace mine). In addition, my drawings have improved after I got used to the nuances of not using a mouse (it is more natural for me to use a pen/pencil). If you are thinking about trying this, do it. You will be happy you did.Customer Review: Exactly what I was looking for

I am a big fan of handwriting recognition. I use it all the time on my windows mobile device. I realized that my laptop has handwriting recognition software built into Windows XP so I started playing with it. Trying to write with a standard mouse is impossible. I set out on a Google quest for a device that I could use for hand writing. Several options came up but the I-pen stood out because you don't need a special writing pad. In fact, I am using the pen right now to write this review!
The pen is perfect, I just need to get used to the windows based handwriting software. It has quickly become a great alternative to typing.
The software that comes with the pen is better than the standard Software included with XP. it can understand gestures for backspace and ENTER
Customer Review: I-pen; just what I was looking for
Summary: 5 Stars
Of all the devices that are out there, this is the one for me. It doesn't require any special tablet or surface, or even special installation depending on how you are using it. I do some web-based training in which it is helpful to do some whiteboarding to enhance my presentation. The I-pen works great and it is easier to control than a mouse.
The only minor issue I have with it is that you have to apply pressure to the point to simulate a left-click. This is cumbersome when trying to write. I would prefer a button on the barrel of the pen instead. As I say, this is a minor issue and does not detract from my recommendation of it.
Customer Review: Great for art projects!

I love this pen! I know a few other reviewers commented about how they disliked the positioning of the hand in order to use the pen. I did not have this problem. It is a bit oversized, but if you are like me and write a lot throughout the day, this actually helps to alleviate any stress that has already been placed on the hand/wrist. I also did not find working with a cord attached to be cumbersome, as other reveiws suggested. I particularly love this pen for drawing/painting! It is great! There are also some cool things that it does (such as writing notes directly on your desktop or document)that make it just a little more fun.
