So you'd like to use your DS as a notepad. You
could:
- write stuff in Pictochat and keep your DS in sleep mode until you get home
- get a flash card (not necessarily just for this) and use DS Organize, or
- stick a bunch of tape to the top of your DS and write on it in pencil
If the final option sounds appealing to you, check out this Instructables guide to "modding" your DS into a notepad. We actually kind of covered the whole elegantly simple process in our description, but you may need more detailed instructions. Apparently Scotch Magic Tape is, in addition to being sticky, an excellent surface for writing and erasing with pencils. Thus anything that can be covered with a layer of it, like a DS, can be made into a notepad. That is, anything light-colored enough for pencil lines to be visible -- sorry, Onyx DS owners.

Scotch magic tape is also useful to remove excessive fingerprints and leave your ds (mine's onyx) looking neat and clean. (I'm serious)
You just stick it on and off where there are marks. I wouldn't do this with any other tape though.

This is, frankly, disturbingly cool.
Disturbing because why in the hell would anyone think of this in the first place?
And cool because someone was that freaking innovative.
However, I cringe at the thought of marring my DS's beautiful self...but then again I own an onyx so it doesn't matter much for me :)

so basically there are not any entertaining games on the DS so stick tape on it and play hangman instead?

Pictochat comments wipe when you put the system to sleep. :(
