My writing on any sort of digital device like that is basically unreadable. I also find it cumbersome and slow to write on anything like that. Maybe if I had a good tablet/digitizer and a stylus, but I don't. Vastly prefer whiteboard or Google Docs, although Google Docs can be difficult to convey ideas about what happens with data structures when trying to understand some problems.
