    I love OneNote.

    Can you forward some suggestions for me?

    1) Faster search on mobile (iOS) apps.
    2) Password protect entire notebooks, not individual sections.
    3) Allow viewing of password-protected notebooks on mobile devices.

    I am amazed that it took them so long to get an iPad app out there. Sometimes I wonder if they have any idea how great an app OneNote is.

    The cloud synchronization is wonderful. Fast and simple. Tell him bravo for that.
    I'll email him. They are always very interested in hearing user suggestions. Since they are active users, they are probably already working on some of these issues (probably not the notebook issue).

    I know this group recognizes how powerful the program is. MS knows this, too. Chris Pratley was the product manager before MS shifted him over to office labs about 3 years ago. I remember thinking that the ON team was going to take a hit and the product would hurt. I also thought the day Chris announced he was going to an unspecified project that MS was going to have another awesome product coming soon.

    The ON team has talked with me about how they hope that the Word team will see the benefit in the autosave and sync feature of ON, which allows the shared notebooks. This was developed by the ON team and I remember them saying that a future release of office would allow the more common applications to live sync. They were going to use the ON code to do this. One of the big hiccups is the vast majority of legacy users that would be very confused at the lack of a "save" option.

    So, yes, they know how good it is as does MS. In fact, I remember the day that Chris announced that ON was going to be added to all office student editions. They were pumped at the recognition from their management.

    Six years ago I said the majority of computers sold to students would be tablet PCs. The windows team screwed MS royally on this one with Vista. MS was about five years ahead of the industry. What they really needed was a device that had shorter boot times. I still would take the tablet PC with the active digitizer every day over the iPad...if it had the battery life and "instant on" of the iPad. Motion Computing was so close, in fact, I think the iPad concept was stolen from Motion Computing and given an apple twist.

    I still think that the tablet PC with active digitizer is going to make a comeback and will battle the iPad for business users, if what they say about windows 8 is true. Dual input is king. Not having a point on my iPad makes the device nearly unusable for documenting in the medical profession.

      Evernote does not allow password encryption for notebooks or sections. It has to be applied one selected group of text at a time. (EDIT: and even that is not safe: http://antivirus.about.com/od/securi...vernotetip.htm)

      Dealkiller on both.
      I kind of knew this, but it was just too easy to use. I read your link. I'm convinced. I'll get something that's better protected.

      Thanks.

        Just read that Jobs introduced the iPhone 5 years ago today. Interesting to contemplate how much change that innovation brought -- everyone else has been playing catch-up ever since.

          It is interesting to look back and contemplate how LA has become a total apple fan boy. As for the rest of you that are still holding out...

            The best is the best, even if they are too controlling and overpriced.

              LAU is a total fanboy now. Switching allegiances though is nothing new for him.

                Ha, the first time I read this post I put "iPhone 5" together mentally. It made me mad that Jobs had the "iPhone 5" ready to go "years ago" but I'm still using a 4S

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes.

                  All of you iPad owners need to hurry and download the free CouldOn app. Seems too good to be true, but I downloaded it a couple of days ago and it works. It is basically MS Word, Excel, and Powerpoint running over the cloud. Files are stored and edited on your DropBox account. A little sluggish at times, but pretty cool.

                  Couple it with a little bluetooth keyboard like this, and you can do some pretty powerful stuff.

                          Try CloudOn. I found something similar under that name.

                                It seems to work pretty well. Thanks for the heads up.
