It would be IMMENSELY useful to me (and many others I am sure) if there was a program on the N900 that allowed you take notes, creating a page that incorporates inputted text from the keyboard as well as being able to draw.

I personally would use it to take lectures in my physics class - typing the written words and drawing the diagrams with the touchscreen.

Does anyone know if one exists? I have been through a few of the free ones but couldn't find anything.

Much gratitude folks!

NB Willing to pay!

Just tried it - there is no way to type text, just draw. Thanks for the reply though

I would say that Xournal should be there soon, so keep an eye on it.

I wouldn't be surprised if Liqbase is there too, when it finally makes its appearance for the N900. Its author is a Maemo/Meego superstar who has been invisible lately, usually meaning he is up to something devious...

Hmm yes I see that now, thanks Dr. Maemo!

Its definately the closest thing to what I need. Maybe I am just being spoiled but it would be wonderful if there could have the drawing and typing on a single sheet, rather than broken down into nodes.

Latest Xournal from extras-testing (or extras-devel) repos has text typing. You can activate those repos or wait for it to enter the stable repo.
I use the latest unstable and it's ok.
