Update: I’ve just read a similar post over at GottabeMobile. It explains how OneNote is helping someone to create a paperless office.
Some of you tablet fans will have been doing this for years but today was the first time I used handwriting on a ultra mobile PC touchscreen for anything other than testing or demonstrating.
Thanks to Warner Crocker’s (GottaBeMobile) twittering a few days ago I finally sorted out a cheap paperless process for my accountant. All the documents that go to my accountant at the beginning of every month are scanned (if they are in paper form) and then ‘printed’ into PDF’s using FreePDF. Using the recent offer on PDF Annotator software though, I’m now able to mark up the PDF’s with notes on my UMPC, re-save them and send them off to my accountant. Its saving quite a few phone calls to explain all the PDF’s.
An interesting afterthought was that I didn’t have any vectoring issues. I used a Q1b (softtouch screen) so I guess I was leaning my palm on the frame.
Next week: Chippy discovers the touch input panel ;-)
