Comments on: Microsoft cuts OneNote price

Software giant knocks $100--half the original price--off its note-taking application.

One Note should be free with Office

No wonder the cut the price. Who would actually pay for a post-it note application? Don't get me wrong, One Note is wonderful. But it should be a free part of Office. It is a real, tangible example of a new feature for Office that makes it worth upgrading to the latest suite. That is the sort of thing Microsoft should be adding to Office if they want people to upgrade from Office 97. :)

Should be only $50

Still overpriced at $100 compared to other good tablet based note takers.

Cheaper Alternatives

Except for the ability to recognize handwriting for tablet pc applications, you can buy a program such as TexNotes for $35. It does everything and more.
