I'd suggest waiting for someone else to try it before buying a Que with the expectation of being able to do freehand writing on it. There are two issues:

1. Capacitive screens are less accurate than resistive screens or Wacom-type screens. You don't need pixel-level accuracy to operate a "virtual" keyboard or to press a button on a dialog box, but you really do need it for handwriting.

2. The screen is "triggered" by the vicinity of your finger or a stylus to the sensor - it doesn't depend on any actual "contact" with the screen. I'm not at all sure how well this would work with writing, where you need to have breaks in what you're entering.

If it works, great; I'm just sounding a note of caution about assuming that it will work.
