A smartpen is a high-tech writing tool that records spoken words and synchronizes them with notes users write on special paper. A student can thus record everything a teacher says and later replay any part of a lecture by tapping the pen's tip on words written throughout the class

Definitely the best possible iPhone/iPad Planner app. Doesn't try to do too much, and definitely does it well. Syncs with Google Calendars and others, which is great for professionals and maybe freelancers, but for some creatives, this may just not be as easy as writing it in a nice moleskine.

Moleskine 2013 Passions Large Weekly Family Life Planner
The reason I am so much more into this planner than all the others is because there is an incredible amount of flexibility of how and where content can be entered.
It has monthly, weekly and daily slots. The daily pages have time slots (although it is in military/european time, which is the issue with Moleskine, they're beautiful, but sometimes they don't give me all the info I want). They also have mini to-do sections for each day and have a daily notes spot as well. Each spread is week, horizontally, which I definitely prefer.
So definitely would recommend this to someone because it has the most versatile layout I have ever seen.
03.05 Update
So as of right now I know what I want:
I want a planner and a an app combined. After doing research I have found that the traditional writing in a planner or a diary is very hard to supplement with a phone app. Phones are much less "glance able" compared to your planner or diary. Also, a ton of creative people, who I am trying to help with this project, prefer to use good 'ole pen and paper when writing to do lists and plans.
I hit a road block though, which is that I am trying to figure out how I can keep those with ADHD/ADD, who get so easily distracted, coming back to their planners. I also wanted to integrate a CBT Diary in the planner, but this would require a daily reminder for someone with ADHD who has trouble sticking to plans everyday. Phones can give you those reminders and may also be better at storing your daily data, but it becomes much less personal or tactile when it goes into your phone. It would be the perfect reminder device, but not the perfect feeling for what I want.
I did find a near to perfect planner for those with ADHD, I will post it along with other examples. I ran into the issue of planners being too stripped down and not having enough options of where to write information.
As of right now, my ideal would be a planner & diary in one, that could be monitored or understood by your phone, and they could be connected somehow.

This issue for so many who suffer from ADHD is that they can have an incredibly defeatist attitude. These cognitive-behavioral therapies can help break those bad tendencies.

Mary V. Solanto, Ph.D., is associate professor of psychiatry and director of the ADHD Center in the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City. Dr. Solanto has worked extensively with adults and children with ADHD. Her research and publications address the cognitive and behavioral functioning of individuals with ADHD, the effects of psychostimulants, and the characteristics of the predominantly inattentive subtype of ADHD.
A new study out of Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) shows that Cognitive Behaviorial Therapy (CBT) taken in tandem with ADHD medication is an effective treatment for Adult ADHD compared with relaxation techniques.

Degree Project Update!
Started sketching out my idea for an interactive site that would be a kind of introduction to my ADD/ADHD services. The iPad would light up and link to an app (if that's what I end up making) which will help people with the CBT on a daily basis. These things are the one time downloads and facts that anyone could check out, while the app would be something much more personal and used on a regular basis.
This is targeted towards creative people, like me, who create in a workspace. This can show them how to clean up their space and make it much more conducive to staying focused and creative.
These are the objects and what they will lead:
iPad: App
Calendar: a blank or more interesting calendar templates
Weekly Planner: Template
To-Do: List Template, strategies for making to-do lists
Coffee/Tea: Info about how caffeine can help focus you, and other alternatives to pharmaceuticals, like coffea cruda.
Egg Timer: Tips on timing yourself during the day to keep working and understanding someone's relationship to time.
Sketchbook: Repetitive sketching techniques to help you focus.
Mason Jar: Tools for people with ADD, like apps to help with money or books that they recommend.
Post-Its: Lots of little facts and helpful tips for people with ADD!
When you think about ADHD, what do you imagine? If you’re like most people, it’s probably a stereotypical image of a young boy bouncing off the walls, buzzing with pent-up, unfocused energy.
But many people with ADHD aren’t hyperactive at all, and by the time they reach adulthood, most hyperactive people have calmed down — at least on the outside. This helps explain why Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, which used to be considered a childhood condition, is now being diagnosed in adults as well.
An ADHD-friendly form of cognitive behavioral therapy promises to help ADD adults and children better manage their symptoms. Could it help you?
Originally used to help people cope with anxiety and depression, CBT aims to change irrational thought patterns that get in the way of staying on task or getting things done. For an ADDer who thinks "This has to be perfect or it's no good" or "I never do anything right," CBT challenges the truth of those cognitions.
The ADHD-specific version of CBT also tries to change people's thoughts. It does this by instilling practical strategies and instruction to solve three of the most common ADHD problems: time management, organization, and planning.
