Phenomenal news. I’m hoping competition drives prices down. Remarkable 2 looks neat but so expensive. Now there’s choice.
Soon: https://www.pine64.org/pinenote/ Also I want to recommend this one: Onyx Boox Nova3 Not so wallet gardened, and with a modern Android (so you could use google maps, openstreet maps or whatever among many other things)
I tried the Boox and while having Android is compelling, the writing experience kinda sucks. I prefer the Remarkable for having fewer but more polished features.
Remarkable 2 is better, because of the features it doesn't have. The best feature of Remarkable 2 is how quiet it is, it doesn't do anything except for Book reading and note taking. No notifications, no messaging, no email, quiet tech.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
> No notifications, no messaging, no email, quiet tech. Also, no spyware..
thinking the same thing. how damaging to the brand that once I hear Huawei, I think of spyware.

No Kindle app = Not useful to me. Do either of these support kindle?

Is there an Overdrive app for the Remarkable 2? I want to be able to checkout and read library books.
With all the events happening right now I find it really hard to justify buying products made in China/Russia/Belarus. This product looks great, but I'll never have a clean conscious knowing my money is by extension financing terrorists.
What electronics can you buy that aren’t basically Chinese devices at this point? Raspberry pi has assembly in Wales but parts are sourced normally, from China. I understand the feeling but, just like it’s hard to participate in the modern economy and oppose climate change, it’s hard to boycott China. Really, I’m honestly looking for alternatives, not saying you’re wrong. How do we get out from this situation?

You can turn these all off. Lack of features is not a feature imho - no mather how hard people try to sell this.
Get an ipad and theres endless apps and accounts and notifications and a shiny bright screen begging for you to play with it. The ipad really wants to be your computer with a stylus attached, and that is great, i take it traveling instead of anything else and its really convenient. The remarkable is NOT a computer. The remarkable sits at my desk and is just ready for me, while the ipad is eternally charging, or chiming, or begging for attention and distraction. I can't have it at my desk while i work.
The remarkable is literally a digital notebook and has about as much utility as a real notebook - a lot for writing and reading and almost 0 for anything else. It is honestly the first product i've used that actually replaces paper at my desk.
