I actually research this kind of thing a lot, Pen and paper is surely great, and passing it physically, and being offline are certainly its benefits.

https://collusionapp.com/ tries to solve the quick sketches and the sharing, which is the winnable battle, the fact that pen and paper is tangible can be won with tablets, but my company tried that, we made a pen and I thought it was good, but it didn't really stick. That might have been for a variety of confusing reasons though.

One thing though is that we are definitely getting closer, and I can at least attest that both hand writing and typing have their place, and the digital and real life hand writing also have their own special places.
