Problem is there is tax, and two different models, so the end cost is really different for everyone.

Does anyone know where you can get a deal on the special notebooks these require?

As an alternative for note taking, does anyone have a recommendation for a "plain" digital pen (one that doesn't capture voice)? Ideal would be one that is stand-alone, not too bulky, does a good job of recording and preferably doesn't require special paper). Writing => text conversion would be nice, but not critical, since I don't think there is hardware or software on the planet that could reliably translate the chicken-scratches of the intended recipient :)...

What about the IO Gear GPEN200N Mobile Digital Scribe? Seems to be able to do all the things you inquire about.

I've got a brand new one, in retail box, unopened for sale. If you're interested you can PM me.

Thanks.
