Geekscape Tech Review: Boogie Board’s Scribble n’ Play
I don’t know if you have ever heard of Boogie Board, but they make a lot of eWriters. These are not to be confused with eReaders, but this is definitely made for younger users. However, I figured that older readers will love this product because it is just nifty.
You should be able to write or draw on the Scribble n Play with anything like your fingernail, and it leaves a rainbow trace. I didn’t know how to describe it any better than that. Other Boogie Board products like the Jot and Sync allow for sketching, but only in black and white. Boogie Board says that it allows for drawing in color, but it is more like drawing with color.
By the way, your drawing can be erased at the touch of a button, like other Boogie Board products. If you want to save your drawing, there is an eWriter app that is available only for Apple products. You can save your creation, and upload it to the cloud, sharing it with everyone. I checked, and I couldn’t find it on Google Play.
Of course, you don’t want to use your fingernail when drawing on this, so it is fortunate that it comes with four styluses (or whatever the plural of stylus is). These are the yellow things that fit on the sides of the Scribble n Play, and they have four different points. One is a small point like a Sharpie, the other is a Magic Marker, another is a like a small comb, and the last is a wide tip.
The only downside is this: I found out that the styluses have these side marks, but they don’t really do anything. Like they have these waves, but if you press them on the board, they don’t make waves. You’re going to have to try it out to see.
The Boogie Board Scribble n Play has this rubber blue band so you can strap it to your hand (see the right of the image above), which is another great feature. If want this for whatever reason, then the Boogie Board Scribble n Play is for you, and it can be purchased for $34.99 on the Boogie Board site.
Also, do you want to hear more about the latest in technology? In early January, there is a big event in Las Vegas known as CES (Consumer Electronics Show). I want to go and report on it, but I need some help. I have a new GoFundMe site that will “Send Mark (me) to CES 2017”. Please click here and make a donation.
