That is the thing though most remarkable fans say it is for replacing paper notebooks. I dont know of many that talk widely about "other features" I got the remarkable specifically because it did not have "other features", I have enough distractions and alerts from my phone, I do not need a tablet that get my email, twitter, etc etc. I specifically did not want an iPAD or a full featured Andriod Tablet with Slack, Teams, Email, etc etc etc I needed something to replace the paper notebooks I carried with me everywhere, it does that job exactly as I wanted

Why would you prefer an e-ink over a regular tablet with colored screen as a replacement for paper notebooks? Isn't having colors available an advantage? My primary incentive for buying an Air 2 (I'm still on the fence) would be to use it as an e-book reader that I can use in the evening without having to worry about blue light interfering with my bio rythm. And from what I read - most e book readers are crap. (Kindle is out of the question for me as I hate Amazon and avoid it where I can - except for AWS which is 50% of my job).

  >>Isn't having colors available an advantage? I only ever used black pen. I am not talking about art or drawing. I used my paper notebooks to organize my thoughts, meetings, todo lists, etc. Some people use apps, and laptops, I used paper note books Remarkable is good for this >>My primary incentive for buying an Air 2 (I'm still on the fence) would be to use it as an e-book reader I have no problems with the Remarkable 2 as a ebook reader either, but I do not buy or use DRM ebooks, I am mainly using it for Technical books I get off Humble Bundle, or stripped the drm from, or offical documentation. PDF works just fine for me, but I can see how some people hate it For me the Subscription, and the inablity of the company to communicate with the community has soured me on the device, I likely would not buy one today for those reasons, but for the function I bought it for (note taking, and lite ebook reading) is works great for me If I had to buy a device today to replace it I would look at the Supernote A5X

  legibility in bright lights of e-ink seems better than on glossy glass tablets?
