Have you ever had the urge to write all over your iPhone, perhaps doodle a little? No, me neither, but if Apple’s recruitment people are to be believed, we may be doing just that soon enough.

The guys from Cupertino are advertising for a ‘Handwriting Recognition Engineer’, with a view to writing code for OS X and possibly the iPhone.

Back in 1993, Apple was one of the firs to use handwriting recognition, when it released the Apple Newton. Could they be heading in that direction once again, 15 years later? We shall see.
