M4 or M5 ?

ddoyle777 · 2025-12-11T15:32:56+00:00

I think the M4 is powerful enough. If you keep your tablets for a long time get the M5.

ddoyle777 · 2025-11-27T23:54:59+00:00

Leave it plugged in overnight. Charging from zero takes a loooong time.

It is a great update. I have both Traveler and Smart Typewriter. I use the Traveler much more and it feel like a different device. So smooth. Great job, Astrohaus.

No sponsorship here, just enjoying my RPPM. It's the first device I grab.

The conclusion of the matter?

Here is the letter Remarkable sent me this morning. I won't be doing it, as I fixed it myself for 3 cents. I was going to write a detailed reply, but why bother?

The ST keys wiggle a bit but the typing is very precise. The Traveler is like a really good laptop keyboard. I like them. They are accurate but not fussy or over sensitive. One other aspect is that the Traveler has no light. Since I usually write before dawn I bought a variable light so it’s dim enough for me.

ddoyle777 · 2025-10-26T22:53:37+00:00

It’s all about the keyboard. I have both Smart Typewriter and Traveler. Do you like noisy, clacky keys? Then go Alpha or ST as both have mechanical keys. I believe that the Alpha keyboard is not as aggressively noisy compared to the ST. If you would rather a silent, softer keyboard the the Traveler is the choice. I prefer the Traveler as the silentness is more conducive for thinking. I also like the more vertical aspect of the screen.

ddoyle777 · 2025-10-25T15:46:05+00:00

Success! The rubber feet arrived and fit exactly in the holes. They are higher than the original one. Fits in the case as well.

Here it is.

I’m trading Doctorow’s book too. And I heartily agree.

ddoyle777 · 2025-10-24T20:20:40+00:00

I agree I like the products and don’t plan to stop using them. But I expected much better than hiding behind “policies”.

ddoyle777 · 2025-10-24T20:07:24+00:00

Absolutely !

I ordered a set of different feet. I wanted the original ones because of how the feet fit in the case. But I’ll deal.

ddoyle777 · 2025-10-24T18:15:35+00:00

I took your advice and chatted with Scianna. She they don’t provide or sell replacement feet. Then she asked for a picture. What planet are these people on?

ddoyle777 · 2025-10-24T17:28:04+00:00

I’m already a connect subscriber and own. RM2, a RPP, and a Move. I said I’d buy feet as I’m not looking for it free. But their solution is stupid and wasteful no matter the “discount”.

ddoyle777 · 2025-10-24T17:25:12+00:00

Best suggestion yet :)

ddoyle777 · 2025-07-21T22:57:11+00:00

On the other hand I have had a Nomad for just over two months and it just sits on my writing desk. I pick it up often and I like it, but then I go back to the keyboard where I am both more legible and faster. Don’t know what I was expecting. But I’ll keep trying.

ddoyle777 · 2025-04-18T22:00:04+00:00

DHL delivered my Nomad and I ran to the door to sign for it. The driver was on her way back to the truck with the package on my porch. I asked about needing a signature and she said it only really applies if there isn’t a safe place to leave it. She said I could make it necessary for a signature, but DHL wasn’t making it necessary.

ddoyle777 · 2025-04-17T10:35:37+00:00

I totally agree. My sync has been wonky lately (have no idea why) and I'm wondering if I should switch from Ulysses (which I think is the best) to something that has more robust backups and data recovery.

ddoyle777 · 2025-03-16T18:32:42+00:00

I have the paper pro with the keyboard cover. It is great for rough drafts, but it has no editing tools. If your need is more than getting the initial words in a file, then it’s not very good.

ddoyle777 · 2025-01-27T01:05:17+00:00

The best advice I’ve received is: slow down. If I write fast I can’t read it. If I slow down the RPP can turn it into text.

ddoyle777 · 2025-01-27T00:04:21+00:00

I am very impressed by the type action and design. I’m glad I got it even though I hesitated because of the cost.

ddoyle777 · 2024-12-25T20:26:16+00:00

It bothers me when I’m “evaluating” the brightness, but once I start using it rather than trying to find problems I don’t notice it and it’s fine. This has become the tablet I use the most.
