I have, and it doesn't work. The recognition is good enough for a demo, in the store you will be really impressed how well it works. However, when really taking notes on the go you use your own abbreviations it doesn't know, use slang or scientific/technical language. Thats where it breaks down and degrades into the usual "I hate you, autocorrect" spiel.

Also, OneNote does it's recognition and replaces your handwritten text by printed text of a different size. This makes all kinds of diagrams, side-by-side-text, tables, etc impossible.

I have gone back to a paper notebook.

You don't have to replace your handwritten text. It's searchable even as ink. Can't say I've ever used the ink to text feature.
