Feature Request: Caclulator

[prey4waves]

While taking notes during a meeting, and when reviewing something grabbed
from the web, I often need to do some basic calculations on the fly. It
would help if I had an icon or hot-key that would launch a calculator (maybe
even the standard Windows calculator) and allow me to do my math. That
calculator should provide a one-click means to paste the result or the entire
"tape" into a new note holder in the open note.

You can use Window's features to make the built-in calculator more
accessible by putting a shortcut to it (calc.exe) on the Quick Launch
toolbar or pin it to the Start Menu (WinXP only). That combined with some
KB shortcuts (Alt-Tab to switch between applications, Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V to move
numbers from Calc into OneNote) can streamline the process.

Are you on a Tablet? There's an Ink-based calculator available here:

The same tips from above can be used to create an icon for this, and you
don't have to put down the stylus to use it.
