To PAD or Not to PAD?

Found this interesting blog entry on using a PAD (Personal Analog Device) and not using a PDA.

Quote from chrisbrogan"s blog:

But for me, for getting things done, for GTD as the kids call it, I like my PAD. (Someone else coined the phrase "personal analog device." Please remind me who.)

Pads are portable- I can whip my memo pad out of my pocket easy cheesy. AND I can sit on it.

Pads are fast- I can boot my pad in the time it takes to flip the cover.

No special language- Instant handwriting recognition.

Great Graphics- I can render pictures in incredible detail.

Always synched!- What"s on the page is true until I cross it off.

Theft-resistant- Who wants to steal a cheap notepad?

He recommends Mead Notebook

I Recommend the Moleskine Reporter.

Click on the photo above to see my Flicker Set of Photos - I updated these with better photo and better cropping. You will find my updated images for my craft project of making a leather cover that would fit the Miqulrius Journal. I chose the Miqulrius Journal since it has many more pages (400 Pages) and it can still fit into my back pocket or inside coat pocket. I wanted the leather to hold in my index cards and some post-it notes, post-it notes tabs, some print-outs, and some money. The paper is a very nice quality alowing me to use my favorite fountain pens and ink.
