I waited a few weeks before writing this review to be sure I was describing my product experience accurately. Having never used a NEO2, the user guide was enough for me to quickly figure out how to use the basic features of the NEO2 processor. It's compact enough to take almost anywhere; this was the reason for my purchase. It's lightweight and unlike a laptop, I don't have to wait for it to boot up before I can begin working. I've only charged it once when I first got it and the battery is still full after approximately 40 hours of use. I was able to go online to easily find instructions on how to use the text to voice unit and the receiver. After sending an email to Renaissance, they replied promptly with a link to an updated download file for the NEO Manager so I utilize the rest of the features with my desktop computer. I've used it everyday since receiving it, and couldn't be more pleased with my NEO2. Read full review

The Alphasmart Neo2 is perfect for taking notes at meetings, or writing journal entries, which is why I bought it. It's less cumbersome than a laptop, has a great keyboard, and has a long battery life. It's not a replacement for a computer (you still need a computer to download, format, edit and print what you wrote), but it's great for people like me who have illegible handwriting, write slowly with a pen, and can type fast. Too bad they don't make it any more. I would have bought it years ago if I had known about it.

This gadget is light, extremely portable and provides a full size keyboard. Compose documents anywhere and the batteries last forever (Years, anyway!). Connect it to a computer, open a document and place the cursor, hit the "send" button on the keyboard and this little gem starts typing everything you wrote into the computer. Magic!!

I like to take this little machine with me when I go somewhere, I can write what I want to on it and when I get back to my desk top I just load it into whatever document in word I want it to go . I use it everyday for at least a thousand words and haven't replaced the batteries yet. Will highly recomend

What a great little writing tool, especially if you suffer from distraction when trying to write. This Alphasmart Neo2 is as close to a "universally compatible" device as anyone has ever made. You upload your work to any computer by plugging in a USB A to USB B cord from the device into your computer, or even smartphone, accessing the file you want to upload, and pressing the "send" key. The Neo2 then emulates a keyboard and rapidly retypes your work into the computer for editing and printing. Brilliant. Highly recommended.
