Hey there,

Does anyone on here have any experience with a product called "Pogo Sketch", pic:

It's supposed to work as a stylus and turn your MacBook trackpad into a drawing tablet, kind of like those tablets by Wacom (just not as good obviously).

I take a lot of lecture notes on my laptop, but for some courses like economics I still uses paper notebook because I need to sketch some rough graphs to show relationships. I prefer to have all my notes in my laptop so they are searchable, and I think this will allow me to takes notes in all my courses. (if it works as advertised)

I know this wont be pressure sensitive or anything fancy, I just need it to sketch some curves in a word processing apps. And the new huge glass trackpad should be ideal for this.

It's only $14.95, but shipping to my location is another $14.99, so that's why I thought I'd ask if anyone tried this before placing order.

Thanks.
 
That is a very interesting product. I am also very curious as to know how well this works. (Bump ;))
