Also in this category is IRIS, with the IRIScan Book 3 offering particular portability. Measuring 282 x 50 x 39mm and weighing in at 0.32kg, both these scanners are powered by their USB connections, dispensing with the need for a mains power supply.

Gilles Bouchard, Livescribe chairman and CEO, says: 'With the Livescribe Wi-Fi smartpen, anyone can easily capture important ideas, presentations and conversations in the most natural way - on paper - and they automatically appear right where they want them - on their mobile devices and personal computers.' The pen can also record audio that is then translated into a digital file that can be accessed with applications including Evernote. Now with Wi-Fi capability, the pen enables anyone to digitally capture written notes. One of the most innovative is the digital pen from Livescribe. However, ancillary technologies are also available.

Using a notebook PC, or a tablet places in the hands of a mobile worker a powerful data-capturing device. The creation and capture of data is one of the primary components of a mobile office. Turning to the camera, lens accessories are available from Photojojo designed for Android phones and the iPhone.

The Tascam iM2 Stereo Microphone is a good example. As every mobile worker will travel with their smartphone or tablet, expanding the capabilities of these devices can enable you to create a powerful and efficient office on the move.
