I'm a hybrid, I have piles of 5mm pads/pens but I use them as a local memory store more than a pure design tool. I also have an ipad/pencil with the excellent notability app (excellent because it gives me an infinite grid page) for jotting notes/things I need to follow up on. I tried keeping that stuff in a text file but there is something about writing it down on the ipad that means I rarely have to actually look it up, it sticks in my memory better and if I do forget what I had to do I rarely forget that I had something to do and can just look it up when we need to.
