Large size screen is nice for reading though.

It’s worth mentioning that, in Star Trek’s universe, tables were routinely covered in PADDs - not because it’s excessive, but that even with eink the most usable environment was multiple virtual sheets of paper at once.
Why is it then that this concept only appears in Trek from before 2005 or so? The modern series barely show PADDs at all. No one uses them like this, and most things are holographic. This is not in any way a commentary on technology or ergonomics. This is 100% an artifact of the show being produced in a time where multiple physical pages on a desk is the only way people knew to operate. It was the only option at the…

I just returned my ReMarkable Pro. I found that split screen was something I wanted and though I had a work around with using my iPad much like Op here, it wasn't ideal. The big nail in the coffin for me was difficulty integrating into my workflow / application stack. I had to use a couple scripts I hacked together to get the data from ReMarkable into the tools I use regularly. For the cost Invested I decided it was…
This totally breaks my workflow. I also tried jailbreaking, but it's all too finicky. It's yet another project to manage, instead of a solution / improvement.
- 60 FPS screen makes a huge difference in reading experience, especially if you want to flip through a PDF quickly
- It's an Android tablet, meaning that I can use my usual programs and don't have an awkward "how do I bring it to Remarkable and back" process
The downsides:
- It's $729 vs $379 for the Remarkable 2
- It's heavier
However, I'm not going back.
After a few days of using Daylight Computer, I have to admit that it solves all the pain points I had with Remarkable 2: - 60 FPS screen makes a huge difference in reading experience, especially if you want to flip through a PDF quickly - It's an Android tablet, meaning that I can use my usual programs and don't have an awkward "how do I bring it to Remarkable and back" process The downsides: - It's $729 vs $379 for…

You can enable developer mode and remote into the device. There are several API frameworks for building extensions. This has been one of the better experiences with hardware (RMP) I’ve ever had. What else are you looking for in a “jailbreak?”
