Considering all the students here - does anybody use Microsoft OneNote?

Any thoughts/opinions on the product (based on use experiences?)?

Microsoft OneNote 2003

The above link gives a free 60-day evaulation of the product.

I'm thinking of using the product for meetings/info sessions - and would like to hear what people who have -used- the product think.

its really more useful when you have a portable device with a touchscreen... I wish they could make a version for the pocket pc... other than that, now i haven't used it.

I'm interested in this product too. I've heard very little about it, but from what I have heard, it sounds like it might be useful.

Downloading now.

I want a tablet PC for this.

Damn you RJ.

Of course a tablet PC would be ideal with this product - but has anybody used it with a regular PC?

The reason I ask - in university and high-school I used to transpose my notes into word, and re-transpose them as a study exercise.

I found this very useful as an exercise for remembering concepts and application of ideas (back when I did this there was no such thing as an "equation editor" - try transposing calculus or vector dynamics without one - it is quite the task.. ;) ).

BTW - the product retails for ~$70 with student/educator pricing.

Thanks for the comments. Keep them rolling.

It's dissapointing that this doesn't work with a PocketPC. Since I've bought a laptop, my Toshiba e400 just sits and collects dust. This would put it to good use.

I can't find anything on the site or in the program itself about converting the written text to nice typed text, OCR capability? That'd be pretty helpful, I think.
rabbitjoker
MS Tablet PC has OCR - thus OneNote w/ MS TabletPC OS would work perfectly.

....so I can't figure out how to type into this goddamn thing.

Somebody shoot me now.

....unless this trial is INCREDIBLY CRIPPLED.

Maybe it's just me.. but from this demo it looks like an incredibly useless product.

I have it and use it occassionaly...it's ideally made for tablets as someone already mentioned but other than that it's kinda cool. It really is only good for making quick notes and for research or quick little summaries :)

I still mostly use word tho :thepirate
