I purchased one a couple months ago, and it has definitely helped to 'become a different person' in that I have found a joy in both handwriting notes and sketching that I never had before.

I downloaded some PDFs on how to sketch, and I can sketch right there in the PDF along side the examples..

The futility of hand-written note taking was always my lack of organization, but the auto syncing of this really helps in that department.

I can't say it is for everyone, but while I was definitely not the target consumer for this device, I am more that person now after buying it. I appreciate anything that pushes any of my time from consumption to production, and this helps me to do that.
