Under Win XP Tablet PC, there are a few applications where one can enter information using the electromagnetic pen, like the one that looks just like a white-lined paper tablet. I would like to see that included in Vista desktop version, even thought you wouldn't be able to write on it, it could be adapted to be used with the keyboard. When printed, it looks very informal and somewhat friendly.

The Snipping Tool is a carryover from Win XP Tablet PC as well, but is now available in all premium editions of Vista because it's so convenient. I used it as an aircraft inspector; we inspected the aircraft, annotated any discrepancies, then snipped part of the drawing that identified the location of the abnormality and sent it wirelessly to the repair section for action. Like the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words.
