Sam,
While the MP2X00's are much faster than the eMate (25 MHz vs. 160 MHz
processors) the eMate may still be the best choice for your application.
It is designed to be abused and has an internal keyboard which is far
easier than HWR to enter accurate notes during a class. If you include
its "laptop" form factor for easy note taking in class where you may not
have much of a desk in a lecture hall as well as it being easier to read
the screen in poor lighting while you are writing on it will probably
make it a better choice. It was specifically designed for the education
market.
