From the manufacturer
Bamboo Slate lets you work the way you work best, easily transforming your handwritten notes and drawings into digital, sharable files. You can collaborate, refine and get your ideas moving.
There’s something magical about using a real pen and real paper to capture your ideas. But when you need to collaborate with a larger team—or just want a workspace to refine and organize your good thinking—handwritten notes can feel limiting.
Bamboo Slate bridges the divide between analog and digital. You can go ahead, write or draw on your favorite paper. Just press Bamboo Slate’s single button before you turn each page to save a digital copy of your work to your devices and the cloud (using our cloud-based app).

Not effortless or perfect user experience but it works
These are my initial impressions. I may update later. Like another reviewer said, it was shipped with the label stuck directly on the sleeve of the product box. I like that this saved packaging, but if I was getting it for someone I might not want the sleeve to be dingy. The Slate is bigger than I expected: almost as wide as a 3-ring binder but over an inch taller. It looks chic and of good quality but I wish the writing surface was hard and smooth instead of being thin vinyl or whatever it is. It's better than writing on a notebook but not perfect. The pen is nice to hold but writes like any cheap ballpoint. Disappointing that I'll have to go from my nice 0.5 mm gel pen to it because I bought an expensive device! Also, as another reviewer wrote, the ink smears on your hand if you accidentally rub it.It came without any instructions but once I installed Inkspace on my iPhone (5s, which the Wacom web page says is compatible), it was easy to link it with the Slate. The Wacom website didn't help me figure stuff out. With the basic app, you can just export as JPG, PNG, PDF, or WILL. With the plus app, the menu has two more options, Ink to Text and Ink to Vector. I didn't read the specs above carefully and didn't realize you have to make an online account and pay $2.99/month for the Inkspace Plus app to get the ink to text feature. At least we get a 3-month free trial. I don't use Evernote, OneNote, etc. but you can copy the text so I'm just going to copy it to a Google Doc. I have the Slate linked to my phone but once I press the Slate's button to sync a page, it appears on my Inkspace web portal page on my laptop, too. It's easier to work with there.I found this video helpful: [...] They show how you can draw, erase, and rewind basically.Below is how an Ink to Text worked for the attached image. I did this on lined paper. I was impressed that it understood my bullet points and cursive but it's not great at aligning text. 10/16/16 Earth Science Notes Lecture 1. • Hydrologic cycle 47 V figure 1. d t groundwater • Read syllabus tonight.

I've read a lot of reviews and watched so many videos on YouTube about this product and all of them concluded that the hardware is really good but the InkSpace app (software) is buggy, unreliable, and useless.
As I started using my Bamboo Slate, all of my worries from watching/reading reviews vanished!
First of all, the Bamboo Slate comes with a 40 pages dotted Notepad, 2 ink cartridges (one inside the pen and one in a small bag), a cartridge removal tool, and a USB to MicroUSB cable for charging.
The hardware is extraordinary! The amount of precision in turning your physical writing/drawing into digital files is remarkable!
For the software (Inkspace), as opposed to what all the reviews said, I found it super easy and reliable to work with. There's no need for internet connection (since your devices are paired together using bluetooth and there's no need for signing up for an Inkspace account) if you choose to work offline after pairing your devices. There's a Live Mode inside the app where you can watch the magic happen as you're drawing on the paper.
Your pages are all easily accessible in one library, the Inkspace app provides some editing options (cutting parts of the page and moving them around, drawing, erasing, etc.) It also allows you to split one page into two based on the timeline and combine multiple pages into one. The app allows you to export to JPG, PNG, PDF, and WILL (whatever that is!) without signing up for an account (if you do, then you can export to SVG and HTML).
The only downside is that the Bamboo Paper app (which is recommended by Wacom to be used alongside Inkspace) is only available for iPad. But even without the Bamboo Paper app, this product is still awesome and totally worth the price.
In conclusion, this product is really good and on of a kind (I use it for brainstorming and developing my ideas). Totally recommended.
