Microsoft Ken Hinckley from Microsoft Research has unofficially put together a prototype Tablet PC note-taking application designed and built from ground up around the pen. InkSeine (rhymes with 'insane'), which gives you the ability to easily search the web or your local computer directly from your ink. Although it's scheduled for a public release on February 15, 2008, Microsoft insists that it is not intended for public consumption: "InkSeine is a research demonstration only, and is not a Microsoft product, nor is it intended to become a product. It is just something we built as a pure research project to explore novel pen and ink functionality."

This is just too cool. Seriously.

This is the first ever time in my life where I thought, hey, a tablet PC can actually be useful!

The question then just begs to be asked, when will it be available for the broader public? Even the MSDN would be cool..
