I understand how you feel. For several years, I owned a BrailleNote, and having the ability to just whip out your note-taker, turn it on, and quickly jot something down was really great.
As to your file-storage questions: I use an appp called Notesy to take notes. I can't remember how much it costs, but it's not too expensive--probably only a few bucks. The app has some accessibility quirks, though I think they have more to do with VoiceOver rather than with the app itself. You can work with files off-line, and they can be synced to Dropbox if you use that. I do, and it's super easy to set up and then forget about. :D Having your notes synced with Dropbox means that you always have things backed up; you can also work with notes from your computer if using this setup. I hope this helps you.
