reMarkable - ePaper tablet..
This is really ticking all the boxes for me..
I got an early pre-order in when they were half price (about £300). That's fully refundable right up to when they're ready to ship, so not a big risk really if the final hardware doesn't stack up..

Looks like the iRex DR1000s I had in 2008/9.

Re: reMarkable - ePaper tablet..
The USP really is the response time of the e-ink when writing and the feel of the surface.
I do like the iPad Pro, especially with Apple's own stylus, but it's still slippery, glossy glass and it's just not the same.
I'm really hoping this will be able to take over as my daily notepad of choice.

Looks great. Very tempting.
Worried there will be a big whack on import charges though making expensive even at the rdeuced rate.

Very nice but no lighting of screen... :\
They need the same tech that the paperwhite from amazon has.

That's side-lit isn't it? Both hand and pen would case a shadow.
Re: reMarkable - ePaper tablet..
I don't think so, not from what I've seen of it. The light is sent from the sides but is conducted throughout the screen via flattened optical wiring, diffusing it evenlyvenusian wrote:That's side-lit isn't it? Both hand and pen would case a shadow.
accross the whole surface.
And even if there were shadows, it still is necessary for reading in poor light conditions.

Looks interesting but wrong size for me (A5 and a bit cheaper then I probably would go for it)
Usually prefer to try something like that before I buy as that usually dampens my tech lust

a) I like to take an impulsive punt on things once in a while
b) There's a 100% refund policy right up to shipping date so if reviews come in looking ropey I have a get out

If you have the iPad Pro and pencil, I hear that a matt screen protector is quite convincing.

Re: reMarkable - ePaper tablet..
Epaper just rocks, I could be very happy with an ePaper tablet. Depends on the software options though...

Re: reMarkable - ePaper tablet..
The colour version of e-paper is still nowhere to be seen. Wonder what happened to it ?
