What about digital paper[1]?

Basically paper with a patten on it that can be read by a camera in the pen. The pen can then transmit that to your main computer.

It’s not new tech but it is pretty cheap and solves the scanning issue.

Moleskine[2] amongst others sell something like that but ther non-premium paper is available too.

I think UK social services used to use them at one time. Much cheaper and less likely to be stolen than a tablet.
