I have a Tablet PC, running Kubuntu, and I have just released a project on sourceforge to allow me to use the Microsoft hand writing recognition. The current approach uses a .NET server in IIS running on Tablet XP to provide the recognition. I would prefer to write a classic Windows program that accepts the polyline ink strokes, accesses the Tablet SDK & .dlls to recognize ink, and run that program in WINE directly in Linux without IIS and network connections.
There is the very tiniest skeleton of inkobj.dll which unfortunately is no where near enough to even let an ms ink program run let alone do handwriting recognition. Also I'm unsure of how doable it is to run .Net apps in wine yet.
wintab32 works alright though, so perhaps you would be able to write a wintab app which integrated with one of the open source handwriting recognition programs (ocropus and others ill try and dig up the links later if you are interested).
