I seem to remember the pattern of dots allows it to uniquely locate itself within an area of about 4 km2 or something ridiculous. This lets it do wizzy stuff like adding things to the correct page if you go back later and squiggle on something you have already uploaded etc, without you having to tell it which page you are on in the notebook.
I think the dot pattern is beyond most home printers, it looks like they are aiming to make the money out of the paper at least to start with.
Oh and there are some gesture things that do some clever stuff, but I can't remember exactly what, I only had a brief demo and didn't pay too much attention as I knew it was too expensive for me.

Clever, but far too expensive at the moment.
