Best tablet for handwriting recognition?

Post by avatarless » 14th Aug, '13, 08:15

Samsung Galaxy Tab or Windows 8? Any opinions on who's got the best handwriting recognition? I've been fantasizing about a computer that would convert my scrawl to text for, oh, 20 years now. Can't believe the technology isn't fully mature yet!

After owning a newton message pad MP110, I break into a sweat when thinking about handwriting recognition.

Can't help sorry

Perhaps you'll have more luck in another 10 years or so... :D

It'll be voice recognition by then.

It'll have to recognise your drawl rather than your scrawl!

I haven't written anything on paper for a long time, because I type much faster on my phone or tablet.

Hmmmm...still use paper and pen at meetings. It always looks bloody rude when people are staring at their screen, tapping away.
