I'd really like a device like this, but it's just too expensive. After adding the pen and possibly a cover, we're in the $500s. Too steep I think.
If you buy the accessories third-party, the cost of the device is cheaper than most other 10" eink writing pads.
Good to know. Any pen stylus will do?
Yeah, same, I really want one too but just can't justify the cost.
What about latency?
The writing latency isn't bad at all. It honestly feels like writing on paper with a really good pen. Latency is noticeable if you're actively looking for it, but it doesn't affect writing at all.
The quality though isn't ideal. All of the Remarkable devices have terrible issues with screen calibration, so the line you're writing doesn't match where the stylus is. Also lines tend to be jagged or fuzzy.

Writing latency on the current generation of eink devices is good enough not to be noticeable.
I've found latency when changing pages to be rather frustrating to the point of it being difficult to land on the page you actually want to be on.
wrt to remarkable: changing pages indeed does take a little time, thus it's not good for researching. writing is nearly instant, but not perfectly, so imo it's not quite as good as on paper (although the resistance is pretty nice). One personal note: I would love to have a thicker pen, the pencil-size is not mine.
Still, I like the device (I'm one of the old customers so don't know about how the subscription or non-subscription fares, since I am grandfathered in) but it's clearly not for everyone. Also I really love the eraser function of the newer pen.
sad that this guy could've continued doing good CS research as assoc prof but instead is compelled to do youtube and sell productivity courses of the three same rehashed ideas ad infinitum.
Are you not aware that he is employed as a CS professor and publishes, or just sad about the quality? What would you expect to see here? https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=EhodjeAAAAAJ...
His non-academic work is an unbroken continuation/extension of work he started as an undergraduate student writing about productivity for students before he was ever a researcher.
Your comment reads like he was just another researcher searching for gigs to supplement a meager academic income instead of being a human being with more interests than just his primary line of work.

It’s even sadder that you feel the need to comment on someone else’s career as if you decide what is important or not in terms of human work and worth.
Cal has applied systematic and algorithmic thinking to the messy world of productivity annd life, and teaches unique frameworks to this day about how to pursue a life that is eudamonious and well lived.
It’s also distressing that you think that mathematics research is more important than your fellow man having a fulfilling career.

I wonder, do you still need to pay their ridiculous subscription plan just to access Dropbox sync?

Possibly, but it's not really sync anyway. You can pull and push documents, but there's no synchronisation.
Not worth paying extra for.

I still consider the software a bit second rate, but it does seem to keep improving.
