I really like the writing experience with the Remarkable but it has what are (for me) some fatal flaws:
- the handwriting to text feature is really impressive but having to do it manually every time is painful and even worse is that it does not respect any formatting, just mashing all my text together into one block
- the search is unusable - why can’t I search for tags or text within a notebook?! I have notebooks tagged to a client name and I also take notes from a sales call which talks about all the clients - I can’t search for “Client X” and find all mentions of them
- handwriting looks great on the tablet but from my PC at default resolution it looks dreadful - hard to read even
It’s unfortunately - the hardware is fantastic but the implementation seems subpar to me :-(
Yep, I used livescribe before to digitise everything as I wrote it. And the search on handwriting it had was excellent. I wanted to ditch paper and just use remarkable but the lack of good search is the reason it went back during the trial period
