Can''t Drive 55
I have created a Sharepoint site and I have shared my OneNote 2007 notebook
onto that site. This allows me to have 4 computers (my desktop at work, my
Tablet PC, my home pcs, etc.) to have synchronized access to the SAME
notebook, so I am truly approaching the point where any notes I take will
follow me around, without having to have the same PC with me at all times.
Now, the question, is: is there any practical way to have a 'notepad' at
work that will allow me to replace the ubiquitous legal pad on which I take
notes? I REALLY want to be able to scribble onto something wherever I am and
have it show up as ink and to be able to search on those words. I am willing
to use Tablet Edition XP on a workstation or to put the proper version of
Vista on it.
I have tried tablets (Wacom, and other third party devices) and I am not
happy with it because of the mental disconnect between the paper and pen and
what comes out on the screen. Is there any device for a few hundred bucks
that would allow something like that? Maybe a cool interface for the AceCAD
tablet where the defined top and bottom of the paper equals the top and
bottom of the OneNote page. That way, I would not have to look at the screen
as I am writing, since that is very unnatural.
also, is there any way to scan in handwritten notes and convert them to ink?
Or is ink's 'intelligence' derived by the strokes that create the words?
Thanks in advance!
