The pen isn’t about handwriting recognition. That’s completely wrong. That’s like taking a sound card and viewing the sound card by how well it does voice recognition–rather than the fact that I can now do voice over IP, and rip MP3s and play back MP3s, and do learning at a distance with Flash movies, and view streaming video with audio.”
Succinct point for Pen/Tabet PCs. Computers arn’t particularly good pattern recognition devices (unlike the brain). And in any case handwriting is inescapably slow.
Just added his blog to my rss feed reader yesterday when I heard his name in the news and remembered he was a tablet proponent from way back.
