Does anyone use a Tablet PC?
 

I'm considering getting one for school, scanning all of my books, and using it in place of a notebook in order to give myself a lotless crap to tote around.

My only real concern is how natural writing on one will feel.

I haven't really used a PDA-type stylus-type thing since before Palms had color screens.

I also keep getting flashbacks to those "light pens" from the early 80's.

Any advice or info on the subject?

Not yet, but after seeing this last week...I'd really like to get one:

The One and Only Tablet Mac

Designed in California by Axiotron?s team of German and American engineers, the ModBook? is at its core an after-market hardware modification to standard off-the-shelf Apple® MacBook? systems, converting them into high-end slate-style tablet computers. With its condensed form factor and integrated pen-based user experience the Axiotron ModBook is the ultimate companion for applications and situations where a keyboard only gets in the way.

It sucks royal cock. Use a lose-leaf notebook.

That Modbook using Wacom's technology and their products work quite well from my experience...and I didn't even have the highend stuff.

Its a decent idea, i have tried doing this. If you are really set on doing this get a good tablet not a cheap one like i got and remember it takes a long time to go digital (scanning book)

wow those still exist?

I used one years ago, and it was pretty convenient.

They've come leaps and bounds...
