When it comes to learning, I'm an odd duck. I take notes because it helps me internalize, but I never go back to them. I also take delight in fresh, empty notebooks that I somehow pretend I'll keep organized with a beautiful note-taking system. Hah. Yeah, right. The end result? I (used to) buy a lot of notebooks and waste a lot of paper.The Notebook:This came in yesterday, and I've already taken five pages of notes! They wipe *completely* clean. I have no qualms about starting a new topic or writing about something completely new on a new page - I'm not wasting paper, and I'm not mixing up the contents of two spiral notebooks - it's all going to disappear anyway. You have no idea how satisfying I find a perpetually empty notebook.The cons - the plastic feels like *glossy* paper, not like notebook paper, which takes a minute to get used to. I keep expecting the ink to smear, but it doesn't. You should hold your pen very gently, and you need to exercise more control as you write because pens moves more freely than they would across paper. That said, it's light years ahead of dragging a stylus across glass.I'm gonna get one for my desk at work, where I compulsively scribble while I think and wastefully plow through legal pads.The App:The app scans, corrects for angles, and adds contrast to images, making them easy to view on your computer. I've only used the E-mail feature, which sends a PDF to the E-mail address you specify. The privacy policy mentions collecting "screens and pages you visit" In the service, but I did not see anything about collecting the notes you scan.I wasn't fond of the permissions the app required for Google Drive, which included viewing and managing files - I'm not sure if a more conservative "create files only" permission exists. So, I'll blast notes to my GMail account and use a single click on my computer to share them with Google Drive.

I love this book! I decided to get one when I realized that most of my writing (even in hardbound notebooks) was really transient stuff. Like to-do lists and meeting notes that wouldn't matter a month from now. I was chucking a lot of paper into the trash over the course of a year. With this book, I can live a little greener as it can function as a portable, hyper-detailed, smudge-free whiteboard -- but I can also digitally preserve and instantly share anything in it at scanner quality. Great for sharing those aforementioned meeting notes with coworkers who are not so good at writing things down or remembering them later.The Frixion pens are very inky/fluid, and they sit wet on the smooth, plastic pages of the Rocketbook for some time. If you don't often write with "gel" type or cartridge pens, it might take a little getting used to. Lefties and folks using languages that are written right-to-left might struggle with the relatively long dry time. You have to be a bit more careful with this ink and this "paper". Be generous with how long you wait before turning the page, and be careful around water! You can smudge your notes more than you might expect by setting them face down on a drop of water, or inadvertently dripping something and then closing it between two pages. But hey, that's why the book is all about digital backup, right? :-) You never know what can happen to your paper notes.I want to put in a good word for Rocketbook customer service, too. I managed to damage my book a bit (some my fault, some normal wear and tear) and I talked to a representative about (1) whether there was anything I could do to fix the page I damaged, and (2) if they had some kind of folio cover I could use, as my Rocketbook's cover seemed to be scratching easily. The customer service rep told me that they were working on making the books more durable, and a folio was in the works (yay!). They also offered to replace the book I damaged, since I had just gotten it. I opted to keep my book and work around the damaged spot, but I thought it was very kind of them to offer -- pretty above and beyond considering how little my mistake affected the usability of the whole book.P.S. If you goof up and accidentally write in your Rocketbook with a normal pen, do not attempt to wipe it off with hand sanitizer :-) Alcohol/acetone will destroy the finish of the pages, removing the dot grid and the "tooth" the ink can stick to. Contact customer service for help before you panic and try random fixes.

I tried the microwavable version with so-so results and was thrilled to see this version that wipes clean with water, allowing me to be more selective about when I prepare pages for reuse. I haven't seen any issue with using the eraser on a page damaging the surface but I can see where it might if you erase using a lot of force (think sandpaper).Other users have complained about ink smearing and running out too fast, which I didn't understand until I tried using the pen provided, which has a 0.7mm tip. I typically use a pen with a 0.5mm tip and rarely encounter smearing. My pens are lasting months, which seems reasonable to me.Darker color inks (red, blue, black, purple) do not remove as nicely as lighter colors (green, pink, orange, light blue, light green). Even after cleaning up the pages, I can sometimes see a hint of what was on it before but not so much as to be distracting or readable.Yes, the cover scuffs easily. I put mine in a padfolio so I can carry it, a few papers, and a pen without fuss. This also means I rarely see the cover so it doesn't matter to me.Overall, I like this far better than the microwave version and this works well enough that I have two: one for work and one for home.

I have tested this note with some of different Frixion pens.These are:• Frixion 0.7mm Black ink (One came with this note)• Frixion 0.5mm Blue ink• Frixion 0.4mm Blue ink• Frixion 0.38mm Black ink• Frixion 0.38mm Blue ink• Frixion 0.38mm Orange inkI also compared the scan quality of Rocketbook app and iPhone 5S default camera.Hope this helps.

This is notebook is better than I expected. I have already had other co-workers order it after they tried it. As an IT professional I use many devices but for quick notes on the go that I can immediately upload and share with others this is the solution. Side notes, the Rocketbook application works perfectly on both iPhone and Android. Also make sure you get the correct type of pens required for the notebook, they are also nice can be used on regular paper and come with a handy eraser on the end.

The new Rocketbook is honestly better than I had expected. I anticipated a certain amount of "plasticky feel" to the pages, but it's not anywhere near as bad as I had planned for. The Frixion pens write pretty smoothly, but there is a slight trick I've figured out... write with the end of the pen upward & more perpendicular to the page rather than back at an angle. I tend to write like this normally so there wasn't any learning curve with me, but my wife has had to do a bit of adjusting. The more angle the pen has, the more the ink seems to skip or be inconsistent.The pages do work well with Frixion pens as well as the Frixion highlighters. When using highlighters, the photo enhancement setting seemed to scan them best. The app works well,but has some room for future growth.Overall, I'm really happy with the new notebooks. I had planned to get a wave but the microwave thing just seeemd inconvenient. I'm really going to be using these a lot for work meeting notes. Being able to sync them directly to the Box or Dropbox project folders to share with others is awesome.
