If I was actually writing notes, though, then I'd certainly prefer the Kindle.

It's definitely slower than the iRex, and not quite as accurate, but it works OK. The Wacom touch screen on the iRex is a lot more accurate than the Sony's touch screen - it's easy to get "pixel-accuracy" on the iRex, whereas when you write on the Sony, you never really know, within a couple of mm, where the writing will appear. For what I use it for, though, it's certainly good enough.
Thanks, Harry. It's nice to have my impression confirmed - and it's interesting that we got differences between two different types of note-taking emphasised.
