Well, I tried scribbling on a demo unit PRS-600 at the local Borders and any curves were rendered as jagged approximations made up of straight line segments --- not something I'd be able to tolerate --- perhaps that's specific to a demo unit, but I doubt it.

On the other hand, I've actually written notes w/ a pen into a .pdf (and my handwriting leans to the small side) and sent them off and the recipients have found them perfectly readable.

Drawing &c. work fine as well.

Until the annotations for stylus-equipped ebooks are as effortless and smooth as painting in programs like ArtRage and Sketchbook, or there're notetaking capabilities like to EverNote or PhatPad, Tablet PCs are much better at scribbling.
