#eink #ratta #supernote #remarkable #boox #productivity #kindleAvoid Titanium Nibs on the reMarkable...Brandon Boswell2024-03-09 | UPDATE: It turns out my experience is consistent with that of "The Seven Pens" youtube.com/watch?v=WvmMHzZoclg. TLDR: If a broken stylus isn't going to bother you too much, carry on with Titanium nibs. If you are going to be upset or frustrated by a broken stylus, then you likely want to discontinue use.
A few months ago, I stumbled upon titanium stylus nibs for the reMarkable. They had great reviews, so I picked them up and gave them a shot. I love the writing feel and have been using them for the last five months, but I started running into issues over the last few days.

I've tried Paperlike-style screen protectors. I've tried nib covers, but nothing has made writing on glass a good experience. Today we're going to try a slightly different approach, which is a combination of both a screen protector and a nib built for that screen protector, in hopes of creating a better handwriting experience in the Rock Paper Pencil. Today we'll check it out and see if it's a reasonable alternative to e-Ink for those with an iPad.

#eink #remarkable #productivity #focus #ipadThe Boox Palma (almost) Replaced My iPhoneBrandon Boswell2023-07-12 | The Boox Palma is a neat little "iPod Touch" style device, but with an eInk display. It can easily be misconstrued as a phone. I know I did when I first opened it, but in practice it is actually a really wonderful reading device, and it has found a place in my workflow. I hope one day that Boox will make a phone version of this as a more compelling alternative to the Light Phone.

#eink #boox #remarkable #productivity #focusHas my opinion on the Kindle Scribe changed? (6 Month Review)Brandon Boswell2023-04-21 | When the Kindle Scribe was released in November 2022 there was a ton of excitement for Amazon entering into the e-Ink tablet space, but at the time of release it's software was not on par with the Boox, reMarkable or SuperNote devices. Now 6 months later, Amazon has released their first update for the device and I think now it is time to give it a proper review. How does it stack up against the Boox, reMarkable & SuperNote devices and who might get good value from the device?
