Thank You very much Mr.WillAdams.
SO you say palm also will be "drawn"? I thought that T1 pen had a special "tip".
Those Newton devices seem to be of 1997-1998.
"Given the really low sampling rate of the Sony digitizer one's writing is really awful looking."- is there a review where i read more.I mean the writing speed and the actual image on screen. I saw a nice screen of hand written text on a review .
"There are programs which will convert handwriting to text though, but I don't think you're going to be able to get a Sony ebook reader to stand in for a Newton MessagePad or a full-fledged Tablet PC."
I would like to give it a try with sony. Would you mind if you name one of the good software for pc that will convert handwriting to text ( assuming a SVG can be opened/converted).
Thanks
