Why aren’t Livescribe Smartpens everywhere in the legal world? Are you often sitting in a conference room taking copious notes while clients and partners speak? A Smartpen would let you capture the audio record without looking like a major geek and synchronize it to your written notes. If you miss something in your written record, the audio record will augment or correct it. But once you capture the event in a digital audio record, why would you need the analog record?
You might ask one of the Baltimore County Circuit Court reporters whose work will soon be replaced by CourtSmart, a digital recording system, according to the Maryland Daily Record. A court reporter will tell you that their audio record will reduce the number of “inaudible” gaps found in digital recording systems. Court reporters will ask speakers to repeat themselves if they did not hear a word or statement sufficient to record it. And lawyers like their replays. Court reporters are glad to echo the last words spoken to further a proceeding or trial.
