Freely install software on it and hack the device, for starters.
There's an incredible amount of clarity and focus around the device, which lends itself to productivity and mindful relaxation.
The e-ink screen is brilliant and non-taxing, too. And the battery lasts forever.

#4Hi Tom,
I'm a big fan of my rm2, too -- and am writing to respond to this:
> "I’d also love a more formal diary / daily entry system. Kind of like Obsidian’s daily notes. Some kind of date-based notebook inside the Remarkable would be rad (even if it doesn’t sync with your actual calendar!). A daily journaling / diary / planning format would be great. (Yes, right now you can select a day-planner template, but you can’t then see them in a calendar view - the date isn’t a foundational element of the note)."
Take a look at https://hyperpaper.me which has been transformative for me. Instead of using a static background template, it generates a (customizable) interactive PDF. This -- crucially -- means it supports navigation, eg jump from the month calendar view to your daily note page.

#6I'd buy one if it supported reading books from the two platforms I use: Kindle and O'Reilly.

#7There are sellers on Etsy that make Remarkable templates (ex, navigable daily planner with monthly/weekly views). I've been using one for years. They will customize if you ask nicely...

Hold a charge for weeks of use.

#9I was a big fan of my RM2, but found the move to the subscription service a couple years ago to be off putting. Sure, I can turn off WiFi, or just use the network to ssh into it, but it felt less than great. I recently got a Supernote to replace it and so far love it. The company seems a bit more open and less likely to try to push me to some kind of subscription/cloud thing. They promote the “works great offline, no subscriptions” stuff right up front. Plus their pens are great - the one I got feels like a real pen.

It's just a pdf, so yes. The only difference is"paper size".
