Microsoft hasn't bundled its innovative OneNote application with Office, but the Mercury News says there will be a free trial version available at http://www.microsoft.com/office/onenote after the launch. The "killer feature" is, as the Merc says, "the audio recording tool. When you start the audio recording, the computer's microphone not only records the lecture into an audio file but also synchronizes the recording with the notes you're typing." I've already seen several journalists doing it with handwritten notes on Tablet PCs. The horribly frustrating bit is its inability to handle names and addresses. If you have used a Pocket PC, you'll know the handwriting recognition makes it easy to write contact details into Outlook. OneNote makes the same task almost impossible.
