I love handwritten notes. I don't love writing notes on paper. It's just too messy. Even though I romanticize filling notebooks with ideas, scribbles, and everything that goes through my mind, I always arrive at the unfortunate conclusion that it's just too much of a mess to be useful to me.
So I went down the rabbit hole of e-ink tablets.
My goal was to find a perfect digital notepad with:
- A good writing experience (pen feel, latency, writing tools)
- A good and easy-to-navigate interface
- Focus. No clutter, no weirdness
- Beautiful hardware, bonus points if it's pocketable
- A backlight
