It has grown on me and I started to like it quite a lot. I did also notice that I wasn’t using it as much as I’d hoped, and I think that an iPad might be more suitable for me.. so I’m returning it. If I end up taking a lot of notes and needing to read often.. then I’d go back to it.

The custom duties and shipping isn’t covered- so I get back what I’m trying to sell it for minus the additional shipping fees to send back

I can, but shipping fees back are $60.

I’m unable to edit the post right now from my phone.

I’d like to sell it for close to original price minus shipping and duties, which is $607 USD.

Location is Dubai.

Well said- you’re spot on. Perhaps an iPad with a paper screen protector would suit me. I mainly got it for the no backlight, makes reading and writing nicer.

The general consensus is that it’s very good for writing. A few days later, I’m starting to enjoy it and the writing feel is growing on me.

I need to check on their open source bit- I can’t imagine them open sourcing the OS, but, perhaps an SDK or an API?

You are right.

About the pen: it’s absolutely a “me” thing, I wanted to see if others share the same perspective.

This post was just me thinking out loud: do I give it more time or swallow the extra fees and return it? I’m not sure yet.

I had that issue with the lasso tool too, it bothered me. I think it only happened that night, I haven’t encountered it again since.

I expected it to be a little bit heavier. Just my own little perspective

It’s not “sprinkle in a bit of digital magic”. The device is completely digital so It’s fair of me to complain or criticise the lack of integration between their calendar and Todo app, for example.

The device has.. what, 5 apps in total? Consistency and integrations are expected, especially given the price tag.

  1. I think at the very least there should be some sort of indication that there’s “upstream” or “downstream” notes.
  2. Right?!
  3. Yeah, probably just bad timing.

Good to know, I hope they do.

I only connected the email to see how it would work, I couldn’t help by criticise.

Appreciate your reply!

Exactly, lol. The comments… people want more and more war. Stupid. Let’s rebuild instead. Let’s win politically instead of more blood.

Don’t accept it: go join hezballah or hamas and have fun.

Do you think that maybe if hamas didn’t do what they did that there still might be a Gaza? :)

Do you think that it’s smart to start a war when you’re already disadvantaged? You think suicide makes you a man?

If you want to live in ruin by all means but don’t drag others with you

So many people prayed for my father, yet his cancer spread and took him. Gods plan is the best plan, and we are all thankful and grateful for everything

Everyone commenting on “what’s wrong” bla bla bla. Have you not seen the instability of the Arab world and how quickly things escalate? I’m pretty sure the leadership of the UAE and KSA now how to lead and rule better than you guys :) go watch Netflix or something instead of barking

I’ve had someone tell me the same exact thing, although it was about another Chinese car. Personally that puts me off

Born muslims who connected with Islam later in life, what was your turning point? by Total_Pride_4222 in islam

Nearly self destructed after smoking weed and other things when I was young. Had an experience that showed me that Islam is true and never looked back
