I got a reMarkable as part of the original lot of buyers. Haven't had quite as much time to use it as I'd like but can summarize: -would like a little better contrast on the screen, though it does seem roughly on par with kindles and the like with lighting off -epub generally works well -full size (ie, letter) pdfs do require cropping unless your vision is superior. The on-device crop is fine for text only pdfs but recommend using an external cropper for pdfs that have charts. Going this route has made it possible to read Reviews of Moder Physics on the reMarkable without the need to squint. -it could use a 20% speed bump. Some of this might be achieved in future software updates. You can, of course, use it for its other intended purposes - note taking and draw/sketching.
