This is Pentop Computing, the next generation of high-speed digital processing, developed to deliver high-speed homework help in the palm of your hand. With the FLY Fusion Pentop Computer, everything you write on FLY? Paper is automatically scanned and digitized. With the tap of your FLY Fusion Pentop Computer, you can interact with your notes, get instant feedback and step-by-step help, even play MP3s and games, all on paper! FLY Fusion Pentop Computer includes: Rechargeable Battery, Memory Expansion Slot, FLY Fusion Installation CD, FLY? Notebook, FLY World Application, 13 FLY Fusion Games, and USB Cable. The FLY Fusion Pentop Computer only works with FLY Fusion software and accessories, and is not compatible with FLY 1.0 products.

How It Works
The Pentop Computer doesn’t need a keyboard. Kids just write with the pen on the specially designed FLY Paper, which is provided in the included notebook. The computer recognizes anything kids write on the paper — from algebraic equations to doodles — and will read back what was written. Then, the Pentop Computer will scan it, digitize it, and make it available for upload to your personal computer. From there, kids can do whatever they want with the data; for instance, email it to friends or transfer it to a research paper. The computer will store a maximum of 80 to 100 pages of FLY Notes. The Pentop Computer is compatible with PCs. (It doesn’t currently work with Macintoshes.) As well as being able to upload to a PC, the Pentop Computer can also download additional programs that are available for separate purchase.

High-Tech Homework Help — or Play
The Pentop Computer comes equipped with a FastComp application to help your child tackle math problems. When your child gets stumped, he or she can simply write out the equation and the computer will calculate it. It also makes a great study partner: Your child can get ready for tests in any subject by using the pen to create interactive “flashcards.” The computer will be able to use the flashcards to then give your child customized pop quizzes and will even keep score. But all work and no play is no fun, so the Pentop Computer also comes equipped with several fun and challenging games, including challenging Tangrams, Hangman, a “High Octane Personality Quiz,” and more. Additional games are available for purchase and download. Plus, not only can your child download and listen to MP3s, he or she can even compose music with the computer’s synthesizer-like capabilities!

The good: The Cowon iAudio 7 is one of the most versatile MP3 players available. It plays music, video, and photos; has unbeatable sound quality; records line-in, voice, and FM; supports OGG and FLAC file formats, plus DRM-protected WMA; works in MTP and MSC connection modes for use on both Mac and PC; and has an unmatched rechargeable battery life.

The bad: As tiny as the iAudio 7 is, it’s still about three times the width of an iPod Nano. The reflective, glossy plastic found on the front and back of the player is prone to smudges and glare. There’s a learning curve to the Swing Touch interface, and we would like to have seen support for Audible audiobooks, as well as a memory expansion slot.

The bottom line: The Cowon iAudio 7 beats the industry heavyweight iPod Nano in price, features, battery life, and sound quality. The user interface could use some refinement, but all-in-all this is a very impressive MP3 player.
