Cool, Powerful Grad Gift

It may FEEL a bit early to be thinking about gifts for our Class of 2011 grads, but advice from fellow Warrior Parents who have been through it suggests otherwise. So, following that advice: here is a graduation gift especially useful for our grads who are continuing on with their education.  It's the Pulse Smart Pen.
OK, I know this may sound like an ad for an overpriced pen, but having used this pen myself, I can tell you that knowing that the pen is recording the details can really help one focus on listening to the speaker, and less on taking notes...during a conference or lecture where a lot of information is being conveyed.
For most of our students, college-level lectures will be a new experience and predictably, will contain amounts of information that some may hay have initial trouble absorbing.. This pen can help fill any gap.
Check it out.
