Circus Ponies Ships NoteBook 3.0

Circus Ponies Software, Inc. began shipping Notebook 3.0, the groundbreaking update to its award-winning application that helps Mac users get organized. NoteBook 3.0 brings diagramming and sketching to its electronic notebook pages, for capturing thoughts and ideas when words won’t suffice. The new PDF annotation features let students add class notes and lecture slides directly to their Notebooks, and then mark them up with sketches, diagrams and text. And with handwriting recognition and anywhere placement of text notes on a page, NoteBook 3.0 makes it even easier for switchers to leave behind Windows and OneNote. “NoteBook is the most-popular note organizer for the Mac, and with 3.0 we’ve made it even better,” said Jayson Adams, Circus Ponies’ president. “Now Mac users don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars on separate outlining, diagramming, and to do list programs — NoteBook does it all, at a fraction of the price.”
Pricing & Availability
NoteBook 3.0 is available now from the Circus Ponies website, with a suggested retail price of $49.95, $29.95 for academic users, and $99.95 for a 3-user “family pack.” Registered owners can upgrade to NoteBook 3.0 for $19.95 until October 31, 2008. After October 31, the upgrade price increases to $29.95. Purchasers of NoteBook 2 between 1/1/08 and 10/31/08 can upgrade to 3.0 for free.
