What you need to know about cloud backup

Is there such a thing as Bluetooth - or other wireless technology - pen that will allow me to write on paper yet capture what I write, digitally?

This would be a great way to take notes if, say, you only have a phone with you, not a laptop, and you can write more quickly than you can type.

Logitech IO vs. Magicomm G303

Another company in the UK offering digital pen solutions is Magicomm. It seems that their G303 pen is both dockable in a USB cradle, but can also communicate via bluetooth with your phone.

They have a consumer site that seems to offer the same sort of things as the Destiny Wireless one:
