of course, you can always use the voice recorder.

Pocket computers like the IPhone make great notetakers if you are just
needing to take quick notes like what to buy at the grocery store or
to make
a note of a book title that you got from listening to an interview. But
they won't make for good notetaking if you are writing down material
from a
lecture in university as the battery will not hold out for long
periods of
notetaking and second, if you were to run a Bluetooth connection for a
wireless keyboard, this will drain the battery even faster. One has
to keep
in mind that the IPhone's battery can not be replaced so what you have
starting out with when you go to class will be all that you get to use
unless you can plug it in.
Notetaking is usually done on a specific notetaker which are designed
for
many hours of use and can handle large files. Devices like a pac mate
or a
Braille note will will be of better use for you in an university
environment. Although if you are only taking one class you could
probably
get away with a something like a touch pro as you can change the
batteries
in them during the day.

Subject: [macvoiceover] iphone question
Hello guys
I was looking forward to getting the iphone, because at university I
would need a new hpone, and mine is going mad after five years. Plus I
would like something to take with me for the purpose of writing notes.
The iphone, with it's features, would be a great thing, but I have got
some questions about it.
1. Does a bluetooth keyboard work with it to type? Touch typing may be
ok after some practice, but not for six hours of notetaking.
2. Since I have to read long texts with it, is it possible to read a
document line by line, paragraph by paragraph etc...like it is on the
mac? Or just char by char or word by word?
Thanks in advance
Tom
