yeah while in travel, there's nothing better than pen and paper (notes, quides, maps). I can handle it to a vendor, cab driver or any bypasser and not worry that somebody will run with it or pass it to another person - you won't do that with a smatphone/tablet.

not to mention you sometimes meet elderly or tech-illiterate people and while they are helpful, good luck making them show you something on google maps on a phone or type in the address.
