The Tablet form-factor presents about as steep or steeper a learning curve / behavior shift as the initial shift from a day planner to a computerized PDA. I'm only just beginning to appreciate the other areas where it can bring “silos" of information into one place. Particularly, in combination with an effort to get either digital originals or scanned print-media, the ability to annotate on-page has been a HUGE time saver for me. Taking notes on class-slides, while in class, is also a convenient time-saver. Being able to draw free-hand when necessary makes using a laptop that much more practical; and not needing to use both paper and electronic notes adds just a teensy bit of sanity back into my life!
