I'm one of the guys working on this. We make money on the product, storing this stuff actually costs us.. So we have no intentions of syncing more than you would want to :)

There's some tech specs on the site (getremarkable.com)

Can we turn off the sync to cloud?
Good point, we'll keep it in mind
For some of us, not being able to turn off sync makes it a no buy (or for work a cannot buy). I hope it will not be required because this device looks interesting.

Good luck

I have to concur with the others. Sync to the cloud is pretty much the last feature I would want; that would make this device forbidden by default without IT approval in pretty much any business or other professional environment I can think of. Imagine if a doctor bought one and took notes on your device. Is your cloud storage solution HIPAA compliant?

Save the notes to local storage and let me transfer them to a computer locally.

Also would like to sync to cloud of our choosing. Dropbox, box, one drive, adobe cloud, etc. I am not a fan of having to use a million cloud services these days.
Ideally offer some private sync option, for example syncing to WebDAV server.
Why is this even a question, seriously? The cloud shouldn't be the first option - I'm immediately turned off by this product if that is how its going to work.
Laugh out loud
In the future, may we host our own?

This may be important for enterprise users who want to keep propriety information on in-house servers.
