I want to like ideas like this but it's been done before and rarely gains traction for most users.

We've seen this with smart notebooks that let you write with either a smart pen or a smart pad and immediately digitize and OCR. We also already have most of this today on our phones via built-in text scanning with OCR and the ability to easily copy and paste into any blogging application of your choosing.

I don't know if there's really enough efficiencies to be gained here, especially any that overcome the lock in required to use this product.
