I’m sure that a couple of months after the iPad’s actual release, we will have so many note taking applications that we will be able to make list of which are better for what kind of activity. To me it just seems like a natural function for a device with the form factor of an iPad and it seems that I’m not the only one to think so.
In addition to plain text notes which you can handle with the iPad’s built-in Notes application, you will be able to create notes that include images and drawings with applications such as SketchPad, which you can see in the screen shot in this post and get a quick preview in the video below.
