The 770 form factor is crying for a notepad application. It's an excellent form factor for taking notes -- I prefer portrait to landscape, but whatever! Taking notes in meetings sometimes means checking things on the Net or looking up other things -- all things the 770 is great at.

Good HWR does exist in a modern (sorry folks, the Newton is not modern. Although someone is trying to raise its soul, it's still a dead platform) usable platform. The Sony Ericsson line of smartphones -- P800/P900/P910 -- have excellent HWR. And, I cough when I say this, Microsoft Window XP Tablet PC version has awesome HWR. It can be done.

Some features that would make a great note-taking app: Note taking with HWR or digital ink, allowing the page with ink to grow indefinitiely (sort like MaemoPad+, but with the growing notetaking surface and without the confusing node tree). Organizing of notes in arbitrary fashions. Sending of notes to other applications on other computers. THe ability to import Web pages and PDF and annotate them.

Tall order...I know. Imagine how cool that would be on a 770.
