Being a college student I think a great note taking app is very necessary for the ipad. It would need to be able to switch from sketching ability (drawing pictures,and writing quick notes with your finger with different colors) to keyboard input with a seamless touch of an onscreen icon. The thing that would make a superior application for taking notes would be multiple-angle keyboard text input. Basically, with a swipe of the finger you should be able to dictate the angle at which text is entered on the screen (e.g. Swiping my finger at a 45 or 60 or 70 or 90 degree angle, or any angle, would thus make the text be input at that angle on the screen). This would be idle for entering text around a picture you have drawn on screen, or entering a note in the margin just like you would if you were taking notes with pen and paper. I think that ability would make the ipad the ultimate school electronic device hands down! Obviously, there should be an elegant start up screen holding multiple notebooks. For that I actually like the startup screen for the iWork apps that have been shown. Finally all this would be for not if there is not a very simple way to put your notes onto a home computer. Well this is my little idea, I think it could be an extremely useful app for the ipad for students as well as the corporate world. Not to mention, that if done write, meaning keeping it simple and not trying to make it more than it should be (because, think about it, a pen and paper doesn't do much, but they do what they do absolutely flawlessly) could be very profitable for the creators of such an app.
