Title: High-Tech Lap top help
Post by: outragous76 on August 01, 2011, 01:35:17 PM
I am currently reviewing my working patterns and have thought of a great idea but not sure if the technology exists?

What I am looking for is a laptop, which I can fold through 180 degrees and use like a note pad (pretty sure this technology exists).

But what I would also like it to have is a "pen" type feature where I can literally scribble on a screen (like a note pad), but it adds my scribbles directly to the document being written on. This would need to be quite fine, ie like wrtiting with a pen, not a thick nib marker.
 
anyone got any ideas?

Hopkin beat me too it.

Thats the one to go for, has a digitiser pen, you can scribble words and it will input it. You have to do a handwriting test thing which matches upto you, pretty sure you will have to do that with any of them.

I actually want something that records my scribbles, so I can circle things, write in red pen, use big exclamation marks, and then save the document "as scribbled on" (as though I have esentially printed something off, scribbled on it and put it on a paper file

how for example would it work on a word document? Would I need to save as a jpg?

Oh. i get ya now, i don't have one myself. But have had a go on one. Yea i imagine saving the document as .jpg opening it in paint, power point or whatever and editing it from there would be fine. That is more of a software issue rather than the actual hardware having the capability. No doubt there is a software suite that can open up a word doc and let you do what you want. But i don't know of any off hand.

Sure there is an app for the iPad for this. Maybe evernote, noteshelf or Goodreader.
