Tech: Motion LE 1600 Tablet PC

Being the organizational freak that I am, it would be wonderful to take notes pen-and-paper style (simple, robust) and be able to refer to those notes electronically (the power of search!) Ideally, you would have software that reads your handwriting and converts it to electronic format (even mathematical symbols). I guess an alternative is to LaTeX your notes at the speed of light, but I don't have enough talent and attention to do that.

One neat tool out there is the Tablet PC. I like the idea of a slate tablet (as opposed to a so-called "convertible" tablet that tries to be both an ultraportable laptop and a tablet). It would be nice to try the Motion LE 1600. If only it wasn't $2000.
