As I see it is just for taking random notes like during phonecalls and stuff. I think it would be interesting to see something like that that you can actually store pages filled with scribbling and maybe connect to a PC and download them.

myboogieboard.com says the next version will be exactly that... dont know when its due out though.
What i'd like is a button on it to "turn page". So you can take unlimited pages of notes on it (like in class, or while reading a book) and then sync to computer and save them all.
At that point it would be more like a true notebook rather than a slate. I also like that it uses no power unless you hit a button.

bought one 
*love it* $35 shipped from the official site. Currently using it to track daily task list next to the computer on my desk. Bought one for my mom to stick on the fridge for messages.
Yea, its a pricey message board, but too cool.

Page-turning capabilities will require some sort of memory, which will take more than a simple watch battery to power.

good question.
arguably the etch a sketch here saves paper... but pollutes landfills later on.
i suppose a dry erase board (or an old fashioned slate with chalk) would have done the same thing, tho not nearly as cool.
i do have a few old fountain pens but i confess i hardly use them any more.

Sumi-e Board. You paint with water. After it dries you use it again. My son uses to practice Kanji.
very neat. i'd never heard of this stuff before. more info.
Would be neat on the coffee table or for practicing handwriting like on a self-erasing slate; but for my purposes (memo board) wouldnt help much. Although it would be an advantage if my to-do list evaporated on its own
I might get one of these for my four year old neice though.I'm actually considering splurging on a second boogie board for myself, btw. Its really neat. I cant justify it on any other grounds though, lol.
