exercise a little patience with Ink and this product works GREAT. printing is not supported very well, but functions. the glitches with Ink are actually Apple's fault, and hopefully apple will make Ink more robust. (issue is basically that multiple API calls to ink, immediately after each other, sometimes causes the Ink service to break the connection to Inkbook. this happens when Ink is parsing a previous pen stroke, and you begin a new stroke before it is done parsing.)

Forget about the complaints in my earlier post (see below.) In addition, I owe an apology to the developer who had left me a friendly, helpful comment which I did not get because I never came back to this VT page. Now, inkBook more than fulfills its earlier promise. With a Wacom tablet, it works very well and even though script is not recommended, it did quite a good job picking up on my scrawl. On block lettering, it amazingly recognized everything I threw at it (a bunch.) I am impressed with the growth of this application and the developer's dedication to it. I hope we will see inkBook continue to grow. I'm ducking out of here to send my $20.

I don't know of a better, easier note taker on the Mac. What a pleasure it is to be able just to jot down my notes by hand without having to take the extra step of uploading them them via apple's inkpad. And the few questions I've had have been answered immediately by the developer.
