I love my rM2 it’s amazing for reading manuals, books, any PDF, drawing quick sketches for 3d prints im working on, note taking, custom template note taking, it lasts me a month without needing to charge it, and on top of all that it runs Linux so I can load whatever custom code I want on it!

I don’t know where you were getting this $10,000 figure or your claim that it “can’t save anything you write down” but the rM Pro is only $579 which is still cheaper than a lot of tablets on the market and it can infact save what you write down.

Also love my plain black and white RM2. The pen just works without needing to charge and the simple ability to just twirl it around and erase like an eraser is what makes it the most like paper. Also works great as an e-reader tablet, which is what I end up using it for half the time.

Apparently it can run syncthing and there’s an obsidian plugin for it, i may actually get myself one of those

I would like to try one for a while, because the idea is nice, but the implementation is usually annoying of these things. Being able to organize and find notes quickly, or transfer them easily to other devices…things that you would want to do.

  FWIW, I bought one for my wife, who is a library administrator, and she loves it. Not IT, but she does do a lot of work with things like XML.

Can you markup pdfs with it? Like if I’m reading a paper can I put notes in the margin etc and save it?

Are you able to attach a USB keyboard and type on it?
