But, I pretty much agree with everything in this article. I'm a huge fan of OneNote. A friend recommended it to me when I complained about needing a better way to organize my project notes. I can definitely see how OneNote would work well for all the things listed in the article.

Circus Ponies NoteBook looks interesting too. But the key to OneNote is that it is really a pen-based application that also happens to have handwriting recognition and keyboard support. I can write anywhere, I can draw anywhere, etc. It doesn't look like I can do that in Circus Ponies NoteBook.

Now, if Steve Jobs would get off his lazy, bloated, iPod ass, and release a Tablet Mac!.....]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/
Now what about something from NASCAR?]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/
Here in the UK, where sunlight isn't so extreme, I've seen all sorts of computers used for the tuning of advanced racing cars in competition.

Tablets initially looked to be very promising, but seeing the display in bright sunlight is often very difficult, whereas a conventional laptop can be partially closed in such a way that the screen is shaded and data can be entered via the keyboard.

Most teams now seem to be moving away from tablets.

They work well enough in the covered areas of the pit workshops, but once you get on the starting grid and want to do some last minute tweaks, you can't always make out the display in the sun.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/
NASCAR prohibits the use of data communication with the cars during the race (only radio communication is allowed) and Ganassi uses their suite of applications during testing, which is legal. I have seen their crew chiefs first hand in Vegas this year use their tablet PC's in the pits during the race to communicate between their pitboxes (also legal). Very cool stuff. If Jeff Gordon had access to Ganassi's technology, he would win 10+ races a year not 5.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/Dec 19th 2005 12:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/21/fujitsu-tablet-pcs-and-microsoft-onenote-at-the-indy-500/]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:16AM
