I just read about this on another forum.
Did a quick search here for it and seen a few words about it in some old post from last year.

Anyone end up using these?

It looks like a great idea. I am alway's sticking a piece of scratch paper in my work shirt pocket everyday to write model and part numbers down on.

If I really get with it I may pick up a small note book, but after a week or two it's lost and I m back to searching for some scratch paper first thing in the morning.

These look really cool. I like that you can print sudoku puzzle on them. I play them on my cell phone to kill time, but like to do the paper versions too.

So anyone else using them?
Are they as handy as they look?

Will I need to order a new Inka pen to use with them, lol.... :)

I carry one everyday and have for quite a while now.  Very handy to have, and the ability to customize it to fit what you need is really helpful.  Plus, you don't mind if you lose it :)

I thought they were great for a while but it became tedious to cut and fold them constantly so I gave up and went back to my PA...  :-[

Think I may have found something better for jotting down notes to myself.

Been playing around with this today and it works great!

I alway's have my cell phone with me and use it to check emails all the time.
Now I can hit a speed dial number on my cell, leave the message I want and it ends up in my email box.

What will they think of next, lol...

Imagine if you were a really a busy guy- you'd have a few of them on each arm just to keep up!

I started using them 10/5/2006 ( the day of my previous post ) and have been using them ever since. I print them out 10 at a time and it gives my grandson something to do ( cut and folding them ). I find I use them more than when I had a PDA, and they are a lot cheaper.
Why do I carry a 45 ?
Because they don't make a 46 !

I use Pocketmod to keep track of common grocery shopping items from different stores.  I've also used it for special purpose check lists.  Uploading the information (cut and paste) into the web app is a little clunky and I find if I make a mistake, usually have to start over from scratch.

I wrote a script to do something similar without needing the website, but it is pretty basic.  It only takes text and you have to manually adjust the size and number of lines.

Lately, I've been keeping a piece of blank paper folded in the same method, used for taking notes.  It's a lot cheaper than buying Field Notes booklets.

I don't understand why the software recommends starting a new thread instead of keeping the conversation in an appropriate existing thread?  It doesn't seem logical to me.
