Paper is just better than glowing screens for lots of perceptual tasks. No-flicker is better than flicker, too. Keep in mind that lots of our new mediums can be thought of as chaff in the way of reading the right good book.
Flicker?? Are you talking about CRT monitors still?
Anyone have any look developing and running software on this thing? https://remarkable.engineering/ Isn't easy to find from the official site (remarkable.com), and I've yet to find a simple "Hello, world"-example from ReMarkable... Ed: i see there already are some comments on this topic. I think I just might pre-order an rm2.
What's the drawing latency like? High latency is what keeps me from switching away from paper.

In some ways, the first model was proof of concept. Excellent hardware and writing experience, but the early versions of the software were horrible, and the device itself is very ugly. The software has improved dramatically in the time I've owned it, going from horrible…

I really would like to see TC just gone. It didn't use to be this bad, but they've been going downhill since... forever, really.
Is it possible to keep documents entirely local and guarantee that ReMarkable doesn't have access to data? From what I recall, their Terms of Service leave this possibility open. This made ReMarkable a non-starter for many companies that have policies around where internal data may be stored.
>Our cloud service is a service we provide to our customers. You are more than welcome to use your reMarkable offline and store your documents in local storage if you prefer.
Aside: I have setup (via SSH) rclone to sync files to my own cloud storage, but that's not something that is officially supported.

People don't jerk off to magazines anymore.
I really love the ReMarkable and this was an easy preorder. The only thing I personally disliked was 1. No eraser on the pen and 2. No USB-C support. Both are resolved here
Being able to do work-related stuff other than taking notes would be easier to justify the premium price.
