It’s a remarkable 2. Really cool device with a hacking community too. You can ssh right into it. It runs Linux

Yeah like the other commenter said it’s a Remarkable 2.

I’ve had it for about 2 years. Use it every day. Still going strong. Previously I had notepads everywhere constantly rifling through them.

At the time I bought mine all cloud functionality was free, but since then they’ve introduced additional cloud stuff with a subscription which is free for me. I personally think it’s fair enough but they lost a lot of their die hard followers. You don’t need the subscription you just don’t get those functions. Probably the only feature I use which is behind the paywall would be screen share. During a video call or teams meeting I can cast the remarkable screen to my desktop so I can draw diagrams. I do this all the freakin time.

Hello, fellow Keychron user

I wonder if the noise is too much for a library?

Nah they’re gateron reds, not noisy at all.

Although the Keychron keyboards with Gateron reds are still a LOT louder than a membrane keyboard, like a Microsoft 600 or something.

I mean, I love my Keychrons, but if silence was a priority you’d really want a keyboard designed for low noise.

Good. So you aren’t pissing off the entire library.

Yeah I did kinda choose these switches for this reason, I’m always using this keyboard in shared areas.

This library has signs up saying that it’s not a quiet library, noise is permitted and expected. That said the clackety clack would’ve been a dramatic and unnecessary flex.

Your wooden wrist rest is completely flat? The setup looks nice though, I miss those days at the library with the t420 I had and loved at the time!

It’s not completely flat, looks like about 8mm on the front edge to maybe 15mm on the back edge.

I am tempted to get one of these but some times the images make it look uncomfortably large?

I’ve never found it so.

I often find it a little small tbh. Can’t fit a lot of words on a page. Maybe a third of the content of a4 pad and pen, mostly because I tend to write bigger.

Edit: sorry I thought your comment was about the remarkable. FWIW I don’t find the wrist rest too large.

Hello, fellow Linux and M14 user.

FYI, the TEX Shura is quite nice :)

I really wish they’d offer a 2.4ghz radio with some decent polling. The Bluetooth accessory is nice, I guess, but polling rate sucks.

Yeah, I have the Bluetooth module for both the Shura and the Shinobi, and I’m not a fan. I run them wired mainly.
