I greatly prefer drawing on paper to, say, using a Wacom to draw directly into Photoshop, but then I imagine that the experience of drawing on something like the iPad could potentially be far, far better than that. Much more immediate and more intuitive. And just for quick sketches and note-taking, it makes perfect sense to me.
All drawing involves tools of some kind, and I think it's silly to rule out the possibility that computers could ever be an effective and satisfying drawing tool.
-But, on that note, I'm not really interested in trying to convince you that it's a good idea. I don't need to. There are tons of apps and I'm sure at least a handful of accessories for the thing that don't appeal to everybody. It's just a suggestion for something that I think could be very useful. That doesn't mean everyone has to think that it would be useful.
