One of the simplest ways to get your preferred app up in front of you the quickest is to map it to a hardware button (just via Settings Buttons and choose one that hopefully you do not use frequently for its default assignment).
As you probably know, the OneNote Mobile client is still pretty limited compared to its desktop counterpart - but will sync mobile notes so still useable.
Another option - IF you can make use of .wav files - is to look at VoiceMinder from WebIS. Very clever app that allows you to map to a hardware button, press it once to start voice recording, press a second time to stop recording and send the voice note to yourself as a .wav attached to an email.

This might be a few words, and I don't think I want to use the tapped keyboard, but the writing module seems too limited.
Software I use NOW that might work is:
1. OneNote2007, which I have named pages for each student
2. DayNotz, which ported over to PPC WM5 (www.natara.com)
3. Participate (through StyleTap)
I need to figure out how to get these programs up in front of me faster, though. Is there a shortcut path in WM5 that I haven't read about or misunderstood? It seems too slow forn the pace of the classroom. I can't pause long during a good part of the day.
Natara has a good desktop side. OneNote 2007 is fantastic. I have just started up my "trial" of the released software and have not downloaded the new version on the Axim yet.
OK, what other ways would work better?
