I love my remarkable 1 but don’t use it very much because I don’t want to be tethered to yet another company’s cloud, and I want document syncing not to require another app or website. I won’t buy a R2 until they add support for one of the big cloud storage providers like Dropbox or OneDrive or gDrive or something.
The device itself is great; the OS is a little slow and takes a little getting used to navigate; recent updates made it better. The tactile feel is great.
