I used to have an Alphasmart 3000 and currently have an Alphasmart Dana. I don't use it often as I am often near a computer, but when I do use it (e.g. Nanowrimo) it's good to have. It's also great for taking to the library; I often like to go browse cookbooks and cooking magazines. I can jot down recipes without needing to sign out a book.
If you decide to go this route, check ebay. The prices for a brand-new one have not come down in light of other tech options available these days (they were designed when laptop computers were $1000+) and they are way over-priced. An older model can be had on ebay for a pittance. I think I paid about $75 including shipping for my Dana a few years ago, and they are $300-400 new.
