A pen combo that convert written text into typing text. From the ads, I think the device can also send the message for you.

The pen cost $15.

I don't know if sending that email cost anything. Unclear if it hook into your fax line or internet line or their own network.

I think the ad is just claiming the pen will still be working when the future brings write-to-text technology into your home, not that the pen itself will do this.

Most definitely what the ad is conveying.

I wish we could go back to these old timey ads that took time and effort to appreciate. I can imagine myself using that pen, it’s even kind of soothing. Not like the in your face quick hit cheap thrill stuff we have nowadays.
