  The livescribe echo or pulse smartpens. I've had mine for a number of years now, and I am still astounded by it. These pens synchronize your recorded audio with your handwritten notes; you can go back, tap on what you've written and the pen will play the sounds/speech that were happening at that particular time. You can upload all of your recordings to your PC/Mac, you can email these as a password protected PDF or webpage, you can do text searches of your handwritten notes, I could go on. A truly breakthrough product, and a boon for interviewing in particular.
