9 ways more productive, and 1 way miserable
The OCR text bug detailed (quietly) at: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/addonenote/thread/a42f1318-27a0-4ee6-8db2-37a93e20ec68 and a follow-up post since some fool marked a clumbsy workaround as a fix and closed the topic.

This bug prevents users from being able to search documents that are printed into onenote. Most often this happen with .pdf documents, but even printing multiple powerpoint slides to a page breaks this. Suddenly what looks tidy from the surface is like you pediatrician's health charts. Nothing is able to be found, or worse- only found in some areas ignoring some entirely. This bug alone cripples this software to being little more than a pretty recipe card collector. Get with it microsoft- you've been working on this patch for HOW LONG?

And now you report you'll only release it whenever SP1 comes about? Great. Thanks for being concerned about selling broken software and still praise the completely broken functionality. Fix this.
