I own a DR1000 and am using Xournal to write notes on a daily basis. It works for me although it has its quirks like stalling if you have been writing without saving for too long. So, if anyone can port Xournal to the 903 i will be a very willing buyer since my DR1000 is getting old. Btw, the iRex has PDF annotation as a native function. It is saved in a database, but you can also merge your scribbles with the PDF file and export that to your PC.

For the rest, the PB story i'm reading here sounds a lot like the iRex history. Pretty good hardware but almost no progress in making good software available. Perhaps PB can obtain the iRex sourcecode as a headstart? After all these are both Linux based devices.
