No I just ment for general operations such as texting and internet or

Hi,

Justin, I'm a little confused as to why you would need to do heavy
notetaking on the IPhone.  Do you mean you'd use it to take notes and study
in lieu of a computer?  If you have one it would probably make more sense
and be easier to just use a laptop, but I'm sure you have a reason.  Just
curious.
