I agree with all the comments above - I find the eDGe very useful to do hand-written annotations and it has almost completely replaced paper printouts for this purpose for me. I've also found that most of the time (when the annotations are just for my own use), I use the highlighter and typed annotation features instead, because they are easier to view in the table of contents. However the option to "name" your handwritten annotations is also a handy feature for navigation.
