BugMe! Comics Pocket PC by Electric Pocket
http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=311&platformId=2&productType=2&catalog=0&sectionId=0&productId=27542
I used this application last year, but never installed it after hard-resetting my Pocket PC. This looks like a fun way to keep track of your information jotting sessions!
"Personalize your Pocket PC handheld with BugMe! Comics, a special bundle including BugMe! PLUS Comic Zipnotes - a collection of 50 fun notepads and reminders featuring Garfield and more. BugMe! Comics includes a full-featured, registered version of BugMe!, the popular note-taking software from Electric Pocket. BugMe! lets you jot down quick handwritten notes on your Pocket PC.
Comic Zipnotes features these popular comic characters: Garfield, Ziggy, Cathy, Bizarro, Captain RibMan and Pat Oliphant's Punk. This fun stationery covers a range of practical uses: alarms, appointments, check lists and reminders, each with a fun comic image. BugMe! and Comic Zipnotes are a snap to use: just launch BugMe!, pick a note and scribble your thoughts, right on the screen."
Seems a little expensive at $29.95 (affiliate link above), but you can take a trial for a spin.

I bet that's due to licensing the characters. If they aren't licensed, it'd be pretty stupid to release - especially commercially.

Yeah, $29.95 is kinda expensive for a notepad/alarm software, the normal Bugme! version costs $19.95 (But still too expensive IMHO). Of course cartoon character licenses isn't cheap so maybe that would explain the price.
Resco has a similar program like that which is cheaper (costs only $14.95) and is way much better than BugMe!

May want to try Pixer instead
If you want to use the comics to send handwritten email messages from your Pocket PC you may want to take a look at Electric Pocket's Pixer application. The product comes with a 50 pack of Zipnotes including the comics ones. I wrote a review of this application if you want more information on it.

I bought BugMe too, but it just was too buggy. It caused an error when exiting + the alarms didn't work. Resco Stickies replaced it nicely.
