Scribble is one of the features I’m hoping works well. Interesting that my Palm Pilot had rather good handwriting recognition back in the 1990s. It was of course very crude compared to what is available today, and you had to enter each letter/number using a specific font style, but it worked so much faster than pressing a tiny keyboard with the stylus. At IBM we used their relabelled Palm Pilot, the IBM Workpad. I’m looking forward to a much more sophisticated feature like Scribble once they get it running well and app developers start adapting it. I’m not clear on whether Apple is making Scribble work in all apps or if the developers have to code it into their apps. Hopefully the former as the latter will take longer to see it appear and be way more problematic.
