Prague – Forget about touchscreens, video and social networks. A new tablet device works simply like pen and paper.

Noteslate

The Noteslate tablet has one colour display and a simple interface that lets users take notes, write drafts and draw sketches.

‘Most devices are glossy, shiny objects,’ the company explains. ‘We welcome something straight, less networked, and more rural and almost natural.’
