one note for apple? tmac?

[capr]

so there is lots of rumors about about a mac tablet , and if it just so happens that we do endup getting them from apple will we have "inote"?

one note is a brilliant piece of software, i love it and use it whenever i have to take notes in class (math major, i take a lot of notes and write a lot of homework).... so you guys think apple will have an inote for their tablets?

I don't think Apple is interested in that product, if you need to take notes why not use an iPhone or ipod touch? specially the ipod touch if you are not interested in a cell phone. I believe an ipod touch is a great personal agenda device.

I would love Apple to come up with its own version of OneNote. We might even see it in iWork 09 which would be awesome. But for now, Mac users have to settle with Evernote, which is no where near as feature-complete as OneNote, but does the job for now.

Clearly, you've never used OneNote, besides I can't only imagine how great it would be to take notes on such a small screen, especially during a 1-2 hour lecture.

But seeing OneNote on Mac Office is probably as likely as Access.

Can't you run it via Wine/Crossover?

While I've never used OneNote, KDE's BasKet might also work, though I have no idea how it compares feature-wise. As it's Qt4, it should compile and run under OS X.

with X11 i guess you could run one note on a mac....

btw as i mentioned i have a tablet and use one note right now to take notes in math class. I need to be able to write math symbols (integral symbol for example) and read it easily later. so one note is really my only solution....

also i hated ever note when i used it, so i hope i don't have to do that whenever apple decides to give us a tablet PC.

OneNote is amazing, nothing even comes close to it on the Mac. The closest I found is OmniOutliner Pro, which is good for taking text-based outlines, but the tablet functionality (for freehand graph drawing, etc.) isn't there at all. That's the great thing about OneNote... It has auto-save, and you can write anywhere you want, draw anything you want, organize it anyway you want, etc. I really hope a future iWork update has something similar.

Well, We got Numbers, so we can only hope.

True, but Numbers pales in comparison to Excel, and Apple's lack of any major updates to Numbers shows that they don't seem too interested in keeping it going. (It seems like Pages and Keynote are constantly getting version updates.)

Are you kidding? Numbers kicks Excels ass.... in my opinion

Numbers if fine, if your scientific needs don't extend beyond high school reports or you're a not a science major in college.

Maybe it kicks ass for looking pretty, but it doesn't even come close to Excel's functionality.
