I use a LiveScribe smart pen for that. It still uses paper, but it's the special LiveScribe paper that has the little dots on it to tell the pen what page and position your writing to.

Once your notes are in the pen you can save them to PDF files. You can also capture audio that is occurring when you jot something down, and play it back from that point. The audio/image link doesn't work with PDFs though; you need the LiveScribe image format and software to do that.

If you buy an additional software package, it will also OCR your notes and output a TXT file. Since I haven't bought the software, I don't know how well that works.
