Yeah, every time I see the ReMarkable anywhere I'm like "I'd love to have one of these." and I go look at their website and it's $600 and I realize I already own a kindle and a paper notebook and never buy one.
I'm sure it's great, but for something sold as, as far as I can tell, a notebook replacement, it's... a little crazy it seems? Like, no amount of better is gonna be $570 better than my paper notebook.
- tonyedgecombe 6y agoCan your paper notebook read PDF’s?
- nucleardog 6y agoNo but the kindle I picked up for $30 can and, from the sounds of it, better. Is the ReMarkable $540 better than a kindle and a notebook? If I really need to annotate PDFs, is the ReMarkable really $600 better than the tablets they're literally giving away for free these days? If I really need to run arbitrary software on something that I can also use to read and annotate PDFs, is the ReMarkable really competitive against an entire Core i5 laptop with a touchscreen and stylus? Yes, the ReMarkable has a one of a kind writing experience. I'm not arguing it's not better in certain aspects than the alternatives. But the premium here seems absolutely nuts.
