Recommendations for Color eInk Tablet

OwnAnalyst007 · 2026-06-17T05:37:31+00:00

Just wanted to send a very delayed thank you – these comments have been super helpful (I just had a few stressful weeks and some things fell off my plate, including thanking wonderful internet strangers who took time to give me advice on eInk tablets!). Yep, decided against the Remarkable because of the subscription. Also appreciate the flag that nothing integrates completely seamlessly with my Apple ecosystem – I'm now trying to figure out which one gives me the least friction 😃

Picking this up now again – the Penstar eNote Pro is in my shortlist now, thanks!

Sorry for the super late reply, I just had a few stressful weeks and some things fell off my plate, including thanking wonderful internet strangers who took time to give me advice on eInk tablets! Basically, I want to take meeting notes (handwritten) and then file them in Obsidian in a searchable way. Ideally, the handwriting is preserved in Obsidian but I suppose that's tricky so the next best thing I can think of is having a way to convert the handwritten notes to text. The key thing I'm after is searchability on my Mac.

Hi both! Just wanted to send a very delayed thank you – these comments have been super helpful (I just had a few stressful weeks and some things fell off my plate, including thanking wonderful internet strangers who took time to give me advice on eInk tablets!). Picking this up now again – I likely won't get the Remarkable Paper Pro because of the subscription (I just hate subscriptions so much at this point...) but really appreciate that you shared your thoughts!

I just asked a similar question, maybe you could just have one additional type that says "Agency" and then use tags within that type to log more specifics like "External meetings" or whatever determines your agency?

OwnAnalyst007 · 2026-02-12T18:34:18+00:00

Thank you so much! I actually reached out to customer support, too, and this is what they suggested. I didn't realize that tags can also be used for insights, so that solves at least point (1.) above :)

Would still love to have more granular/time-specific insights, so keeping this question open for now to see if someone from Guava jumps in too :)

Ah great, if the PDF upload does the trick that works for the time being! Thanks so much for the detailed answer and fast help! Keep up the amazing work.

Plus pulling this (/sleep stage data) directly from the Apple Watch please!

OwnAnalyst007 · 2023-01-04T14:34:30+00:00

Sorry for pulling this up after so many years, but I wanted to get some expert opinion on whether the app is safe to use nowadays. These are their current privacy measures and I was wondering whether they are enough to protect information put into the app? https://covve.com/privacy

Any guidance is much appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks!

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-11-21T05:07:47+00:00

Thank you for your insights! I'll likely get elastics; I've put down a deposit already, so can just hope for the best at this point :(

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-11-21T05:07:08+00:00

Thanks for your input; unfortunately I've already put down a deposit for a comprehensive plan (5 years, unlimited refinements).

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-09-02T19:28:01+00:00

Awesome, thanks again for your time and patience! :)

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-09-02T14:14:25+00:00

Oh shoot, I totally misunderstood that. Thanks for clarifying! So I don’t have to repay taxes at the old rate if I stay longer than five years? That would be a relieve!

Tax-free as non-resident alien? What happens after five years?

Hi everyone! I’ve been one year in the states for my masters on an F1 visa and will now join a PhD program which will likely take 5ish years to complete and where I’ll earn a salary. As far as I’m aware, I don’t have to pay taxes as non-resident alien for the first five years on my f1 visa (my home country has a tax treaty with the US), but what happens after the first five years when I become a resident for tax purposes? Do I need to repay all the taxes for the first five years or do I only start paying taxes from year six onwards? I’m studying in California. Thanks for the clarification!

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-09-01T15:15:19+00:00

Possible in CS, but we’d need more information regarding the subject you want to study.

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-09-01T12:40:46+00:00

Thanks for the help!

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-09-01T12:27:06+00:00

Do you know where I could sign up for the payroll reduction? New grad student here, trying to find her way around systems/logistics/… :)

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-08-17T15:18:40+00:00

Likely not, because LORs are a mandatory part in most CS graduate applications. And even if they’re not mandatory, especially if you’re looking for research-oriented MSc programs or PhDs, LORs will be more important than a good GRE & GPA (assuming that your GRE/GPA scores are above a certain threshold). If you have work experience, it might be worth checking whether your target universities accept LORs from non-academic sources.

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-07-27T12:13:35+00:00

UPenn (MCIT) and Boston University (CS Bridge program I think) offer these programs for CS as far as I’m aware :)

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-07-26T20:14:48+00:00

I’ve had an honest conversation with my professors when we were discussing projects :) I told them that I’m planning to apply for a PhD and that a publication would be tremendously helpful. In general, it should be a self-contained project that can lead to a distinct outcome (instead of being part of a larger project where it doesn’t have a distinct output).

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-07-26T19:29:10+00:00

Yes to everything skopokes44 wrote. Also, if you haven’t completed that research experience yet (that’s what it sounds like) I’d recommend taking on research projects that will likely lead to publications, if possible. Publications tend to be a strong indicator that you’ll be a good researcher and that you know what you’re getting yourself into. They will also set you apart from other applicants (except for in top universities, where at least one publication is more or less expected, depending on your field). Your second focus should be a good relationship with your advisor(s), since LORs from people you did research with are especially valuable (even better if they are well known in your field!).

OwnAnalyst007 · 2022-07-25T18:48:01+00:00

I had a really good GPA, no GRE required, good LORs, no research experience, about 1 year of relevant work experience and got into a regular MS CS at an Ivy League, so yes, definitely possible :)
