Review - The boogie board eWriter - Jot 4,5 with clear view
Small, handy, lightweight - perfect for kids

Now that we've tested some LCD eWriters, it's time for a dedicated kids' LCD writing tablet. From the inventor of the electronic writing pads with erasable LCD display Boogie Board / Kent Displays comes the smallest electronic writing board yet. The Jot 4,5 with Clear View Display.
"With Clear View" already indicates the direction in which the application of the small magical paper should go. Through the transparent display children (but of course adults) can put a picture or a drawing under the LCD display and sign it off. This is especially fun for children, because the result can be seen mostly. This little writing tablet connects to the success of the Play n 'Trace model, just a lot more handy.

This is the Boogie Board Jot 4.5 clear view
Writing board with many accessories
Unlike many other LCD panels, the Jot Clear View has a lot to offer. A clip that can be attached to both the front and the back. Front as protection against accidental erasure, if ma wants to cancel a drawing times longer, on the back as a holder for the cards also included.
The mentioned cards, 20 in number, are printed on both sides. All letters of the alphabet are available here, including instructions on how to trace them. Numbered arrows teach correct letter writing. Furthermore, the writing of the letters in smaller version or on "empty" lines can be practiced.

Perfect writing learning tool for children
On Boogie Bboard children can write and sign whatever they can think of. If that works without paper (waste), then that's a great thing. Just a modern version of the popular magical magnetic boards from earlier times. The magic boards are of course still available, but a technical development stage among the LCD writing boards.

My review of the Jot 4.5 Clear View
The Clear View by Boogie Board is an ingenious toy for my kids. It is also extremely convenient for road trips or on the train. The maps are unfortunately in English, so that the book's tabs do not always match the pictures.
The lack of possibility to change the battery is a pity, I just hope it has a long life. If the board gives up after 2 years, which is the duration of many replaceable battery boards, it is very disappointing.
That a saving is not possible, I did not expect in this price range, a deletion lock would have been nice.
All in all, but a successful product.
