When I was still at school, I used a scientific calculator for my notes at the later years. Even while it did had graphical capability, you can imagine there wasn't much pictures. Also, writing was everything but easy with the small buttons and odd layout (compared to qwerty). Today I have been using my phone with built-in qwerty to do same thing. It has camera so I could take pictures too, but my studies now are just some day or two work-based random courses so I don't make exactly notes about what somebody talks. I do make notes about development ideas I get from those courses, and such ideas rarely need any pictures. But if I were back to school and need to make lots of notes, I would probably use one of those mini-laptops, built-in keyboard for writing and a mini-mouse for drawing figures. Maybe use the phone to take pictures and record (audio) everything just in case I don't quite follow my notes later.
Or, maybe I would just forget making notes and try to listen and learn. What ever I use, I still cannot remember those details after a while so all lecture type teaching for me falls eventually to category "attitude" learning.
