What do you see folk using today?

I find handwriting to be the slowest input. I bet those with either the onscreen or a small bluetooth keyboard.

Many have flamed over handwriting to text conversion so I can't write any are that great. Test a few before you buy any.

What's with the kindle fire hd.

It' a pretty good and small tablet for general use.

I like what can Sumsung propose to the customers, so I can recomend even Galaxy Tab. They can present the function of handwriting.

Galaxy Tab uses a stylus?
Feb 13, 2015 2:41PM PST

thanks for your reply. Does that mean the Galaxy Tab also has the option of using a stylus to handwrite notes?

it's possible, but there is no stylus in the box

Regarding to Galaxy tab manual handwriting is possible, but there is no stylus going with Galaxy Tab in the box, so you will have to buy it separately. All I want to say - samsung have the best handwriting tool.

wacom support

I believe the tab has wacom support, wacom support is the best when it comes to using a stylus. IMO, if you need to use a stylus, make sure the tablet has wacom support.

I personally have the galaxy note tablet only because it has a handy stylus holder and addition apps preinstalled.
