I don't know about that, I think you should give the tablet mode a try before you speculate about what it can and can't do.
I use my SP2 a lot with the Pen and OneNote, which provides automatically digitized handwriting that is viewable and searchable from any computer. It's a pretty killer app but I would probably still be using pen and paper notebooks before someone integrated a screen and highly accurate pen in one device.
You may find some uses for the tablet that you never imagined before.
- hackuser 11y agoCan OneNote data be exported to some open, editable format? I like the idea of OneNote's functionality, but I worry about having my data trapped in that application.
- WorldMaker 11y agoIt's an Open Specification file format, at least: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd924743(v=office.12).aspx https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd924743(v=office.1...
- blumkvist 11y ago.docx, .xps, .pdf
- awa 11y agoThere's also an api you can use to pull data out.
- hackuser 11y agoI'm hoping to find something editable. If the document is complex, with multimedia, are the .docx exports reasonably functional? Some conversions to .docx and some multimedia content in that format can be unstable.
- NeutronBoy 11y agoCan you suggest a commonly used format that would allow complex multimedia editing like you're suggesting?
- hackuser 11y agoMaybe a web CMS like WordPress or a wiki platform, but nothing that is stored in a single file. It seems to me to be a big hole in available technology. Why in 2015 can't I easily create a document with multiple videos, markup, etc. in it?
- mcgannon2007 11y agoYeah. PDF and XPS are two that I know for sure.
