[Pibe-division] Digital Handwritten Notes

Digital 
Handwritten Notes. it sounds like an oxymoron...kind of like a hairy bald guy, 
but it is here.

The writing surface is about the size of a small piece of 
paper. The whole board is light and easy to carry and about the size of an 8x11 
piece of paper. It is a tiny computer and you can add more RAM- with a memory 
card. 

The blind student can take the digital note-taking device to a 
class where the teacher is very driven by writing on the board. The blind 
student hands it to a sighted student and she takes notes on it. At the end of 
class, the sighted student rips off the pages for themself and hands the board 
back to the blind student. The blind student can then download all the notes 
onto the computer. In tangent with this is a handwriting recognition tool, which 
translates the handwriting into digital text that talking software can read. 
Note taking made easy.

This is the one I have been using and as long as 
the handwritten notes are legible, the pad can read it to the computer. SolidTek
