Thanks for your reply, psidnell.
I also use Notes Plus, and I love it. I just upgraded from the iPad 1 to the iPad 3, making it quite usable again.
My dream app would have:
- the diagramming of omnigraffle for iPad
- the handwriting of Notes Plus
- The bulleting/listing/numbering of omnioutliner/keynote/pages
For right now, I'll use OmniGraffle for iPad as my base, and export my canvases in PDF format to Notes Plus so I can scribble on it as I make my presentations to my students. Sadly, that still leaves me without numbers/bullets.

I liked the ability to grab a chunk of handwritten text and shrink or move it, something many handwriting apps lack.
The main problem though (common to most "drawing" apps) was the inability to easily create a dot over an I or a full stop. In order to make a mark you must drag, which kind of breaks the flow.
The "Notes Plus" (great features, but crashy last time I stressed it) and "Note Taker HD" (more basic but very stable) apps are the best hand writing maniputation apps I've found but don't have anything like the sophisticated diagramming capabilities of OG.
