Is there a program which can turn some1's scanned handwriting into for example Times New Roman in Microsoft Word?

Handwriting is difficult. Probably won't work without a lot training and in the end you would be faster typing stuff of paper into your pc. OCR is the keyword you need. Omnipage Pro, Readiris. There are many programs out there.

Tablet PCs and Pocket PCs have the ability. I do it in Pocket Word on my PPC all the time. Works great.

Look at a Wacom Tablet, I think they can do it, too.
