Batteries For Your Pen And Paper?

Posted by timothy on from the overwrought-and-underuseful dept.

An anonymous reader writes "We've been hearing about the paperless office for years now, but we never seem to get any nearer to that environmentally friendly nirvana. It's just too easy to jot things down on a piece of paper, far easier than using a PDA. So maybe a digital pen and paper is the answer? The people at Pegasus, inventor of the Mobile NoteTaker certainly think so. Unfortunately, the guy who reviewed the NoteTaker thinks otherwise."

    This is a solution to please all the tree hugging hippies who are too stoned to actually know what really goes on in the world.

    It is quite clear that we are in a throw away society if something breaks we throw it out and get something newer and more sparkley.
    What a glorious observation. Please don't stop...
    Which takes me to my tree hugger mode and I have to ask, which is easier to recycle, small pieces of paper and biros, or all this tech? At the end of the day which is the more eco-friendly solution? The paper or the tech?
    Are you actually attempting to use your cerebral cortex here? Good for you kiddo! Can he keep it up...
    I'm not a tree hugger or eco minded so I'll leave it to the reader to go and find out.
    ...alas, you let us down again. We were really looking forward to your conclusion.

    Oligoncicella, you wow me with your exacting logic and mind expanding spin.

    I'm faced the with the choice of wasting the next 10 minutes trying to point out to you the complete and utter weakness of your post, but I'd like to hope that it is readily apparent and hence, unnecessary. That, and I've got less important things to do like just let others know they are not alone when they feel their IQ drop a few points by reading your comment.
