First Claim
1. A pen system for recording a track of handwritten information created by the pen device, comprising:
- a handheld pen device for recording said information in a digital format; and
a memory for storing said recorded information, wherein the memory includes;
a first memory unit located in the hand-held pen device; and
a second memory unit located in an external data storage device, which memory units are connected in such a way that a transmission of said recorded information is caused to occur automatically from the first memory unit to the second memory unit, and through transmission of the recorded information from the first memory unit to the second memory unit, the recorded information can exceed the storage capacity of the first memory unit and thereby, from the point of view of the user the first memory unit and second memory unit form a coherent memory unit.

13. A hand-held pen device, comprising:
-
a device for recording a track of handwritten information created by the pen device; and
an information transmission device for transferring information from the pen device automatically from the internal memory unit to an external memory unit in an external data storage device in such a way that by said transfer the recorded information can exceed the storage capacity of the internal memory unit and thereby, from the point of view of the user, the memory units form a coherent memory unit.

14. A system for information management, comprising:
-
an information management unit; and
a pen system which is designed for recording a track of handwritten information created by a hand-held pen device, the pen system being arranged to store the recorded information in a memory and to communicate a required part thereof to the information management unit via a communication network, wherein the memory includes;
a first memory unit located in the hand-held pen device; and
a second memory unit located in an external data storage device, which memory units are connected in such a way that a transmission of said recorded information is caused to occur automatically from the first memory unit to the second memory unit, and through a transmission of the recorded information from the first memory unit to the second memory unit the recorded information can exceed the storage capacity of the first memory unit and thereby, from the point of view of a user, the first memory unit and the second memory unit form a coherent memory unit. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
