The Bottom Line: I know of no other way to do what AlphaSmart does for any less. Their support is top-notch and the product is simply fantastic.

| jerdawson's Full Review: AlphaSmart 3000 |
The AlphaSmart 3000 is the best, most economical way I have found to type on the road, in my easy chair, at a meeting, at the beach, on the boat - anywhere! When I get back to the computer, a simple USB hookup and one keystroke is all I need to download my work! I love this thing. The built-in spell check is nice, although I wish I could add my own words to it. The battery life is amazing. I have used AlphaSmarts since the very first models came out years ago - and I have always gotten 6 months or more on a single set of batteries. I don't use a power adapter even if I am near a plug because the batteries last so long.
The USB is so much easier to use than the keyboard method - I am VERY happy now that AlphaSmarts have USB capability.
I would recommmend the AlphaSmart to anyone who needs to type work remotely but doesn't need an expensive laptop.
