My issue is latency from _idea in head_ to adequately captured somewhere.

A book is usually open in front of me with a pen at the ready. An application.. well it depends, but best-case scenario is that it's in a easy-to-switch-to window and is natural to just get the idea down without jumping through hoops.

As an aside from a sufferer of ADHD, I think Augmented Reality tech would be a killer platform for an in-place TODO/Note/Reminder/assistant.

A small boost to that workflow is the ability to unlock and launch apps in one swipe but that still leaves the power button, optional pin, and never being quite sure what state the app will resume in. Edit: Forgot to include the animations that run slower than my hand can move.
