My handwriting is inconsistent and after decades of typing, I'm prone to making mistakes when writing by hand which quickly renders writing thankyous a painful chore. If the choice is between me sending something like this or not getting around to sending anything, I think this has its place.

My wife uses TouchNote to send physical postcards from her phone of photos she's taken of our children to various family members. I think they're pretty cool, especially when you consider that doing this otherwise is painful enough that it never happened.

If they're using your handwriting, I wonder if they randomise between a few instances of each letter rather than having one of each. I imagine all of us check convincing handwriting fonts by comparing multiple instances of the same letter?
