Consider trying Evernote for notetaking. I use it on laptop, Android
phone, Samsung Galaxy tablet desk computer--syncs on all of them. Also
includes option to take photos--great with phones--and clip web images.
Works really well.

Not sure how you could even remotely think that note taking software would be
considered a Legacy add-on. I would think it is pretty obvious what is a
legitimate add on and what is a stretch of imagination.

Not everything is obvious to everyone. It was obvious to you but not to me.
I read the subject and saw it's about Families, and in Sherry's mail I didn't
read anything about note taking software. Sherry allready wrote it's ok to
discuss Families on the LUG.

like 'free' would fill up fast.

Yes, it was after seeing the Family App webinar that I was wondering about note

I rarely enter data in the field on my Kindle Fire, but it is absolutely great
to have with me at my local libraries/archives and when I travel. I find the
size of the Fire screen more than adequate for reading. Marianne

I recently installed Families on my Iphone4s and it's small but
readable. It would be nice to be able to enlarge certain areas if you
were having trouble reading something by 'stretching' the screen (some
apps but not all allow you to do that) but it's perfect for my needs -

I just consulted with an owner of an iPad 3 this morning about taking
notes.
He uses his *iPad 3 *with the *Apple blue tooth keyboard* for note taking
in the field all the time. He said the touch screen keyboard is good but
not what he likes as a fast typist. He also tried using a program on
It is interesting that today QVC is having on special of the day the Apple

QVC Price: $814.00
Today's Special Value Price:
$699.00
Good
Thank you all for the feedback!
I think I've decided to just use Families to have on trips as reference
material (not to enter data.) Since I don't think I can yet budget for a
monthly smartphone data plan, I will try one of the tablets--between the
Samsung 7 or 10.

I can pinch on both my Android phone and the iPad - of course it is much
easier to see on the tablet, and one of the great extras in using
Families.

Lightscribe has absolutely nothing to do with Apps, phones, tablets

Did you mean livescribe (it is a pen you write with and it records

No it's not. Lightscribe is software for burning labels onto CDs
The new iPad has a note app on it. Another one that is recommended to me quite
often is Evernote. Haven't used either so can't give thumbs up or down.
