Guide Review - Adesso CyberPad Digital Notepad and Graphic Tablet

The Adesso Cyberpad I reviewed included the Cyberpad, Digital Ink Pen, padded portfolio, USB cable, batteries, battery charger, stylus tip, extra ink cartridge and tip remover.

The Adesso CyberPad is easy to set up and get working with. Install the batteries in the tablet and pen and start writing. It really is that simple.

The tablet has the capability to have 26 directories with 99 pages in each directory. As it works with USB 1.1, it will work with older laptops.

The best advantage to this digital notebook is the fact that you can use any paper - you don't have to buy special paper or worry that you will run out while on the road.

The included software is easy to install and enables you to work within MS Office programs and your email program. When installing the driver in order to use the CyberPad as a graphic tablet, you will have to reboot before connecting the Cyberpad and using it.

When connecting the CyberPad to your notebook to transfer files or use as a graphic tablet be sure to insert the mini USB Connector securely into the Cyber Pad. You may have to press very firmly – listen for the click to know it is connected.

I enjoyed using the Adesso Cyberpad as I still love to write longhand and organize my thoughts that way. With the Cyberpad it was easy to then transfer the notes and diagrams to my laptop and not lose time typing and creating the information a second time. The CyberPad is a real time saver and very handy for mobile professionals.
