Unfortunately, I don't own a Kindle Touch, and it isn't mentioned if the software works with the Kindle Fire. Pretty cool though if a small start-up can put together an interface that Amazon probably hadn't even contemplated.
Probably this isn't what I am looking for, but I have been waiting a long time for a program that would recognize my cursive handwriting with a finger or a stylus and convert it to digital text. I would be willing to put out the bucks for that!
