I assume it's sort of in-between the typewriter and modern word processor experience: you can undo what you type and insert text for instance, but given the slow refresh rate of the screen it will be tedious so you'll probably want to limit it as much as possible. As such I think it can work well for people looking for a "typewriter" in order not to be distracted while they're writing something. Just throw your thoughts on e-paper and edit them properly later on a real computer. So obviously technologically-speaking it's much closer to a computer than it is to a typewriter, but usability-wise the parallel might be more obvious. My main issue with this design is that the screen is too small IMO, but of course I assume that large e-ink screens must be quite costly. |

He claims it allows him to focus on the work, keep backup copies of his notes (he can draw right on the PDFs and then save them to "the cloud", I think), and although it has an experimental web browser, he keeps it in Airplane mode when working.
