Convertible/tablet for handwriting.

Hi.

The tablet-guys didnt seem to have any suggestions, so maybe you do.

Hi.

 

I'm an MSci Computer Science student, and I am looking for a new solution for my notes and work. 

Currently I bring my rMBP to campus every day, but I only use it for programming and other exercises that are obviously meant to be done on a computer. I mostly write things for hand - mathematics, circuitry etc.  I use a notebook per week, so it is very difficult to keep an organized repository of my notes and previous work.

 

I have been looking into acquiring a Surface Pro 4 and iPad Pro, but I am unsure due to the price. All I need is a quality touch-screen with a stylus that is specifically designed for that screen, and has multiple layers of touch-sensitivity. It is not mean to replace my MacBook - nothing will every beat its keyboard, screen and performance.

 

Is the iPad Pro and Surface 4 the only options here? What do you suggest?

Wow this might be -EXACTLY- what I am looking for. And that price!

I believe it is still a touch screen. But you actually do the handwriting on the keyboard.

That's a bummer.
