Agreed. I can accept a lot of it's shortcomings because I don't think I
paid that much. This is not the kind of technology one whould sink a lot of
money into anyway. It's bad enough how quickly PCs become obsolete. These
things are very much like wrist watches.
Ditto on AA batteries.

Agreed. More of a problem though, is that notepad files are difficult to
export. I have to copy and paste them into text files, which takes time and
space.

Here I disagree. I use the Jotter quite often. I love the ability to
quickly input information then later decide where to put it. It fits very
will into my way of doing things. Instead of having envelopes and post its
in my pockets and my wallet and all over my computer screen or (worse) lost,
I build up pages in the Jotter until its full, then do a little house cleaning.

I do care about size. I wouldn't want it any bigger. The keyboard is fine
to me as it is.

I can usually manage as it is. If it weren't to much of a battery hit, I
would switch on a back light occasionally. But if it drained quickly, I
wouldn't.
