That sounds interesting. Can you give us some sources on the net?

@All
Am I the only one for whom the price point of the reMarkable Tablet seems ridiculous?
I bought the Slate vs2 (iskn.co) for 170 Euro. It’s “only” an enhanced graphics tablet without OCR. But I could (if my handwriting was more legible) feed the image file to a OCR software that I already have. The Slate allows me to draw on ordinary paper and turns the lines I draw into a digital bitmap or vector graphic so I can edit it on the PC/Mac. It’s not perfect but more than good enough for me. Did I mention that I prefer drawing with pen on paper to drawing with plastic on plastic?

Have a fine day.
