I spend my days in emacs and terminal emulators and I want this very badly in a laptop form factor so I can comfortably work outside.
Yeah I'm really surprised they didn't go with a laptop screen rather than a monitor designed to be left in a fixed place! Whoever's first to market with a good laptop e-ink display is going to rake it in.
Framework should offer an e-ink display as a component you can drop in to their laptops.
It's already possible, with a remarkable 2 and a special vnc client https://github.com/matteodelabre/vnsee. Though I have not tried it yet, it looks great, but the screen is way smaller than an usual pc monitor
I have a Onyx Boox Max, an A4 b/w e-ink device. I can't use that as a screen, due to too low refresh rate. Writing on it with it's pen is great, but typing on it is horrible. The slight delay breaks the usability.
I don't know how that stacks against the remarkable 2.
Try learning vim. If you're typing confidently and using the commands you can use it with higher latency.
The device looks neat, but I don't like the "Connect costs $4.99 per month" stuff when you've already paid for the device. Is the device fairly locked down to force you to pay for their cloud service?
I've never needed it, I have a remarkable 1 and it's perfectly enough for my usage, I use it only as an ebook reader that can takes notes, I don't need the fancy colors features of the new one.
