Welcome to the wonderful world of Newtons, Douglas.

In fact, we did have a (brief) discussion that touched on comparing
electronic diaries and paper ones. Somewhere in all that there was a link
to a site by Mike Rohde, and from his site I eventually got to yours and a
few others. I found it all really interesting because I fall in the
category of fanatical Newton users with a dark secret: I still *also* use a
paper diary, a "Seven Star" ring-binder I've had for decades. I don't
really know why; the Newton can easily substitute for the paper diary, and
now the one I most can't bear to be without is the Newt, BUT ... I also want
my Seven Star. So I understand your attachment to your Moleskine and pen
but if anything can take the place of your Moleskine I think it could be the
Newton.

And if like me you end up with a dark secret and keep using them both, well,
we'll have to start up a 12-step group or something. ;)
 
Shalom.
Christian
