That being said, a conference full of traveling training specialists thought it was extremely cool and not too pricey. (I must have been the lowest paid person there!) And I still think it has a lot of possibilities for graduate students and researchers. The battery life is much longer than for any tablet, and most academics don't care about video.

But nearly everyone I've shown it to is surprised that it doesn't convert handwriting to text.
I was under the impression that this feature is already available as an extra cost addin. Am I wrong about this?

I do believe the battery life is getting close to the minimum which I believe is about 20 to 24 hours.
