I am looking for a PDA to fulfill a pretty basic function, but am not even sure where to start looking, or what to look for.
Quite simply, I am a writer. I write a lot and have tons and tons of notebooks lying around, none of which are really surviving the test of time or constant viewing.
I hate typing. I am fast enough to get things done when I have to, but I just hate typing on keyboards...they feel so impersonal.
I need a PDA simply to allow me to write in an electronic format for better storage and easier. Something that will hopefully read my terrible handwriting, translate it in to a text file of sorts, and allow it to be transfered to whatever program happens to be around at the time (Open Office, Office, etc.)
Where do I begin looking, what do I need to look for?
Thanks.

Yeah, what he said. You want a tablet, not a Pda. Specifically, a slate style - I have a fujitsu siemens st5010 and it's like carrying around an A4 pad. It doesn't convert text very well, but you can just save it as handwritten notes.
