Well, I don't think a note taker can replace a full PC with a fast processor and lots of memory and programs like excel and access, power point. I do agree that it is far more intuitive than anything else out there, and I love it for that! I wish my PC was so intuitive. But on the job, a BN might not be able to keep up with the work. For instance, I had to do many large mail merges on my last job. I don't know if that could be done from a BN and in the time frames I had. Mail merge is a function of MS Word. This is not in any way meant to say the BN isn't great. I'm jest saying that it is a great note taker and PDA, but it probably wouldn't replace a PC in many instances. I'm glad to be able to have both!

There was a post prior stating that we should not expect the BN family to be computer replacements. I do not yet have a BN but I wonder why this was said. It seems to me that the BN family can do almost everything a PC does and much more intuitively.
