Ok, I played with it and it seems like the recognition only works in the “Notes” app. It doesn’t work as a general text input for applications.
It works pretty well, though. You select the text with the pen by circling it, and then you can copy it to the clipboard or replace the drawing with the actual text.
Battery life is good, I use it with the wifi off and only had to charge it once, and I read a full book on it.
I haven’t played with the handwriting recognition yet, let me take a look and I’ll report back.
I bought a Mobiscribe recently, for the same reasons. It’s an eReader with an eink display, but it’s an Android tablet. I installed F-Droid, and then NextCloud (to access my ebooks) and Librera Reader. I also use it for listening to podcasts (via Bluetooth, since it’s an Android tablet) and taking notes with the stylus.

There’s a big conflict of interest in dating apps: if you’re successful you stop using the app, and of course the company doesn’t want that.
The report in the first link is 1 page of affirmations, without any evidence, backing, nor references. Followed by 50 pages of names of random people, including a veterinarian and my old scuba instructor (really!).
That’s not a report. I’ll pass.
Yeah, I want to read it again! Maybe when I’m retired! 🙂
Gödel, Escher, Bach. I was only able to read the whole thing because I was in a ship for a month without TV or internet.
The beauty of it is that 10! seconds = 6 weeks.
No one is suggesting that the transition would happen overnight… It would be just like any other job that became obsolete in the past, it would gradually phase out.
No, but you can just take B12 supplements, the same ones that are given to cattle.
Steal $50 from your employer and you’ll to jail. Employer steals trillions and nothing happens.
