I too struggle (and fail) to keep physical papers organised. But I'm not sure why electronic papers should be any easier? Unless there's some amazing software that can recognise content automatically...

Just tags plus dates would be enough to a very long way to making things much easier to organize. I know I made some notes after that meeting in October and I know I probably tagged the note with something like 'CFD' and/or 'wind'. Show me all the notes that match those criteria and I'll probably recognize the notes I'm looking for in less than a minute.

I mean physically, having to move several times and being too crammed while taking classes, I have lost several classes of notes. Digitally it's always on dropbox/gdrive.

You can't grep paper.

just to clear up any possible confusion; don't expect text recognition.

it's probably the most requested feature, but it's a really, really hard problem.

but please send me a message at [email protected] if anyone have any tips about solutions to this (we're talking with a couple of vendors, but we might have missed some).

FroshKiller is right, a good search feature would make this device much more useful.

Regarding that I do have a 'tip' for you. There is no need for an intermediate textual representation. If a sequence of pen strokes is what you have recorded, then a sequence of pen strokes is what you should search by.

For further tips (or an algorithm) I have to charge :)

Yeah, to be clear, I was talking about the advantages of electronic documents over paper in general, not any specific application of this device.
