Welcome!

Several years ago I got a newton 2100 for just that reason- taking notes and keeping a bit of a journal. Something that lasted about 5 minutes. I write much too small for "ink type" notes to be taken, and way too fast for the software to convert my handwriting, which allows me to write larger.

So, once I was writing big enough, in a legible enough handwriting, and had waited for the software to convert it, I was about 10 lines behind where I needed to be note-taking wise. I've also tried using my laptop, using something like word with the auto-outlining, which works nice, until I needed to draw a diagram or something similar.

When it comes down to it, I've found that a cheap legal pad and relatively comfortable pen beat out all digital alternatives.
