> I have some vague typed notes, but I can’t recall the technical details I need to finish my work. No one is available to answer my question. It’s then that it hits me: I should have written down notes by hand during the meeting.

I've been done with handwriting ever since laptops became common. I can type much faster than I can write and also much more legibly for a given speed.

Of course, this is on a laptop with something resembling a real keyboard. I can see how handwritten notes are better than typing on a smartphone. Of course this is fixed with a Bluetooth keyboard, a good full-size one like an Apple one or Logitech.

Is it ridiculous to be typing on a big keyboard to smartphone that's probably about half the size of the keyboard? Sure, but no one has ever not wanted me to do this in a meeting.
