Written by someone who quite obviously never used a late-model Newton, so they are left to display their ignorance by draging out the same list of launch problems that gets repeated over and over. I picked up two MP2000s as soon as Apple announced they were discontinuing the line and they are still the gold standard that no handheld note-taking device/app combo has managed to hit in more than thirty years. I keep trying new apps, beg/borrow access to higher-end Android tablets to see if they are any better, and still everything comes up short. The introduction of the Pencil stylus to the iPad Pro line gave me hope for a while, but no one stepped up and delivered so the best we seem to have at the moment is OneNote.

Ya and be ready with product . Software can be alpha beta or theta.

People now will buy anything cool.

What they did was hype the product and did nothing.
