YES!

This replaces your legal/letter notepad your drag meeting to meeting, not your Kindle.

If the pad and display was good enough to keep up with handwriting, I would be all over this at work.

I've worked with Laptop or iPad/Keyboard and I can make it work, but nothing beats a pen and folio.

Apparently Sony's going to a legal-technology trade show to pitch this to wealthy legal firms.

No need to be a wealthy law firm. $1100 for an obviously deductible business expense isn't much, about the same as a quality laptop (and far less than what people used to pay for a quality laptop). You'll see people using these on CSI or some other legal-themed network TV show before the end of the year, possibly even the end of this season. If I was a TV show producer I'd be on the phone to Sony right now begging for two of them - one for the TV lawyers to use on screen, and one for me to mark up scripts on.

Bones. I expect to see this on Bones shortly.
