I believe that my thinking process is aided by the physical act of handwriting, and I find it hard to draft ideas via a keyboard or by the joyless experience of 'writing' on a conventional tablet. I am therefore delighted with the Nomad, which I took to straightaway. It accompanied me on a recent trip abroad as my only device (apart from a mobile phone), and at no point did I miss my laptop or tablet. The small format of the Nomad meant that it lived up to its name during my wanderings. There is a learning curve, of course, as with any new system, but the onboard user manual was always available. The only functionality I would have liked (and it may be that it is possible but I have not yet worked out how to do it) was to split the screen and have, say, a Word document open in one screen and a Notes file open in the other. That aside, I can see this little device becoming an indispensable companion.
