Rocketbook Pen/Pencil Holder (Pen Station)

In the early 1970's at an exhibition at Cape Canaveral, (now Cape Kennedy), my family learned that by the year 2000 we should be living in a paperless society, (also a society that was environmentally friendly, and trashless). Mom used to screech about how we were still wasting tons of paper every year. Lo! and Behold! Rocketbook!! This is the most amazing invention since the personal computer was introduced into the common consumer's home in the 1980's. I can easily see using only 2 notebooks and the memo pad and needing no other paper, (except of course to buy greeting cards) for the remainder of my life. I will be buying these for my grandchildren too. The only thing is, it's a shame that there aren't more dry erase crayons for the Rocketbook coloring pad. Crayola only makes the original 8 pack and an 8 pack of bright colors. I hope that they make catch up with Rocketbook soon! I strongly recommend these for anyone who uses a lot of notebook paper. They are perfect for school, whether grade school or university. They are even easier to use than writing with a stylus on a tablet. The stylus never quite catches ones handwriting perfectly. One has to be very precise when using a stylus. With the Rocketbook, you simply write as you always have, make an "X" on the symbol for the path you want the page, or batch of pages, to take, then, holding your cell phone over the page to capture the entire page, scan the page. Voila! The entirety of the page is now in the designated folder in the cloud, or sent via emailto the person or persons you wish. This is FANTASTIC! No more wasted paper at the end of the day. One notebook is all your student needs for the entire school year! One notebook is all you need to author a book. (Even a picture book!) I believe everyone should buy Rocketbook and start not wasting paper today!

Fast to install and it holds a pen better than using the spine

I appreciate that the product is pretty cheap and straightforward. It seems to stick well and it looks nice on the Rocketbook.My only minor complaint is that the elastic strap is sewn together on one side, and there's so much overlap and stiffness that you cannot squeeze the pen in on that side.On one hand, this makes the elastic strap look really sturdy. I expect the strap to hold together for a long time because it's so well attached. But it's also annoying to me that I can't slide the pen in on either side.But for $5 and one-day-delivery, I can't complain too much.

I attached this to my Rocketbook Core and it’s stayed put. I walk around with my Rocketbook a lot for work so it’s convenient to have my pen ready to go. It’s slim and doesn’t take up that much space. It blends in and can be used in a professional setting. Highly recommend - it’s a small item but makes a difference.

At first, I didn’t think I needed this little guy... But wow, I can't imagine not having it on my Rocketbook. Having my pen right there, ready to go, has made my note-taking sessions ten times smoother. No more digging through pockets or bags – my pen is right where it needs to be, every time.I gotta admit, I wasn’t too thrilled about it being stuck on the outside back cover at first. I put it on the inside of the front cover to keep the pen facing the right way, but it ended up causing a bump in the pages. Figured it would not work out this way..Found out by accident how tough built this thing is– the adhesive and the holder, both. I slapped it on, changed my mind about the placement.. I pulled it off carefully, repositioned it, and it stuck like it was new, and it's still going strong after a solid month! I'm sure this thing is staying on for good.

While it sticks out from the notebook, it can be attached in an unobtrusive location. It does the job of holding a frixion pen to the Rocketbook so I always have the right type of ink. Cannot complain at all about durability. If it falls off unexpectedly, I'll update my review.

the elastic came off the first day. I used super glue, being careful not to glue the strap together, and it works well.It's important to keep the special Frixion pen handy, so this is a great accessory. I accidentally used a real pen the 1st day, so use this to remind you.Update: Now, a month later, and the adhesive for the back came off, 2 times in the past day. If your pen catches on something, it puts a lot of strain on the holder and it will break loose. I carefully superglued it permanently, making sure not too much to touch any of the pages.I carry the Rocketbook with me everywhere in a backpack, so it's bound to get yanked on.

A problem with Rocketbooks is that it requires a Frixion pen. If you don't have an easy way to keep them together, new users will grab another pen, start writing in the book and find it is not erasable (without using "Goo-be-gone" or alcohol). The only problem is the original Frixion pen had no clip, so it worked well with this little holder. But the replacement Frixions all have a pocket clip that makes it harder to use. You have to slide the button end UP into the holder to work because the Frixion pen uses a hard rubber covering on the barrel that will not slide into the holder. But once you figure that out, it means you have to use TWO hands to insert the pen, but the holder improves the convenience of always having the Frixion pen with the Rocketbook. So, even though the price seems high for such a doodad, once you use it, you will be happy. BUT, when you get it, think about where you want the holder. I put it on the side, but it gets in the way sometimes, so consider putting the holder on the TOP edge of the Rocketbook, not the side.
