App Like Microsoft OneNote

[bubleeshaark]

I use Microsoft OneNote every day at school, and it is the most amazing software ever.

This device is meant for students, right?

I agree; I would like a similar app. An app which allows one to take notes with either a stylus (as one would do using a pen on notebook paper) and using a keyboard. And yes, I believe students were in mind when Notion Ink was designing Adam.

I have to agree OneNote is a great software, and I would love to see something similar on the Adam.

+1 for a ON equivalent

yes I use onenote like my labbook its pretty good, I' like to see ppl from genesis developing something similar or even better, until now there is a similar software for Android, Evernote, but it s not the same.

Evernote is not the same, it's better than OneNote. Much simpler, less confusing interface, works on virtually anything.

Evernote is NOT the same. It's only even vaguely similar. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Evernote, and have been using it on my TC1100 since it was a proof-of-concept app for ink recognition and promoting the companys (then) free ink libraries.

One thing OneNote does that NO other app seems to do and I would kill for on Android...this is hard for me to explain well, so fair warning...

Open a new sheet in ON. Start recording audio (I think this works with video, too, but never needed to try it). As the audio is recording, jot a quick note. The note could be a topic change, if this is a lecture, or someone's name, if this is an assignment handed out at a company meeting, a date if it's an appointment or schedule note from a lecture or meeting...stuff like that. Stop recording.

As you go through your notes later, you'll see a small media icon nect to the jotted not. Tap it, and IT PLAYS THE AUDIO STARTING AT THAT TIME FLAG! Forgot the little trick the prof meentioned in his lecture? No need to hunt it down, just click the icon next to "-TRICK" in your notes, and there's that exact part of the lecture. Forget if it was Bob or Janet who was supposed to get you the info on flight number, airline, and gateway? Click the icon next to "-Flight Info" in your notes from the company meeting, and there's what you need to know. Is George down the hall...you know, the guy who never keeps notes at meetings, and always manages to convice others that *they* were supposed ot do ItemX, when it was really him? Next time he wanders in to your space and tries to fob off work on you, you pull up the meeting notes and click the "-George tasks" link, and you can both hear EXACTLY what the boss said.

OneNote is the BEST at what it does, and that's be a multi-media note taking tool. Evernote is among the best at what IT does, and that's act as a dayplanner with note-taking functionality.

I would love to see an app like OneNote or the others also. But I really hope that there will be a palm rejection in the app also so you can rest your hand on the screen while you write.

Wow that sounds pretty slick. I'll have to check into it; I really like that being able to pick up from a specific time flag.
