Tablet/digital notebook for university

[Stu123]

Hey guys,

i am an engineering student in Germanyy and I am looking for a tablet which I will only use to take notes, because I want to get rid of all the annyoing paper stuff.

Right now, in all my courses, we use scripts which are more or less a 'cloze text'. There are gaps for drawings, calculations, etc.
We can also get the scripts as PDF files, therefore, I am looking for a tablet which can read and annotate PDF files.

I would also prefer a tablet, which gives me the feeling of actually writing on paper. It should also have the size of a A5-A4 paper.

During my little research, I found some interesting tablets, but all of them does not really match to my 'perfect tablet':

- The Boogie Board. Unfortunately, the Boogie Board is not able to open PDF's and show them on the screen.

- The Asus EA800 (Eee-Note). Unfortunataly, I read that the EA800 has problems with the annotation-function (if you understand German: Asus Eee Note EA-800 im Test (3/4): Groteske Märchen » neuerdings.com)

- The Aiptek MyNote Premium II. To my mind, this tablet isn't able to open PDF's as well, isn't it?


I imagine a tablet which is more or less like the "NoteSlate":
($99 iPad rival NoteSlate: Not quite real, not quite fake - Feb. 25, 2011)
I was pretty mad when I read that the NoteSlate does not really exist.

So I hope you got an impression what I am looking for, and I would be really, really thankful if you come up with some ideas!!

Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet and Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 come to mind, but I'm not sure if those are exactly what you are looking for.
