Just watching you gives me enough energy to push myself a little further. I appreciate the work you put into your planner, your videos and all the positivity in this pretty negative world. Keep it up!

Glad I listened to the end, agree with your assessment. Not quite a single use device, but definitely all about focus. My Supernote allows me to still be connected, on demand, to calendar and email but otherwise is all about notetaking and reading. Then you throw Obsidian in the mix and I'm golden. Great video.

Okay this guy is a Super hero …. I agree with everything the coach says on this video…. I did not return the remarkable PRO because of this man’s planner ….I feel cheap getting it for free.
When I just want to sit with my thoughts and plan the Remarkable is fantastic, I can truly zone in and focus.
Also I am slightly older than the Coach and have been using screens for longer than most of you reading this.
There are no sore eyes or screen glare causing my eyes to tire.
Thank you coach and thank you remarkable

I love the remarkable paper pro! Notes are amazing and pdf edit as well.

[Tibecojuvi]

Thanks for this interesting video. Confirms my decision to stay with the RM Paper Pro 😊

Good video.. My combination is the IPad + Remarkable. I have a Boox Go 10.3, it is flexible to add apps but not a go to device for quick work. With Remarkable app on IPad, we can also track progress there. I am pretty sure there is a way to read the planner PDF handwriting with AI OCR to provide a digital instance of whatever is captured as well

Passed the quiz - Minimalist Methodical, interesting) Actually, I agree, I really liked how my own custom PDF/TODO list planner is on the rMPP, I prefer using rMPP for planning/scheduling, writing my thoughts. Agree on those thoughts with you. Also, probably, don't mind to carry 2 devices. In fact, I used to carry two IPhones, one - from Work, another - Personal, so, probably, that would add up to 3 devices, if include the EInk...

Good work! I actually prefer the remarkable pro to my iPad Pro when taking notes.

5:32 Hi and thank you for the iPad vs E-Ink review! As always your videos are enthusiastic and informative. I have the rM Pro and would love to read a book on it! I know it’s EPub friendly but I have had a terrible time trying to figure that out. Do you have any suggestions or a video with step by steps to deal with this challenge? Thanks again!

I don't mind the "wrong" writing feeling on the ipad. my other device (work device) is my laptop. I was thinking before on getting an e-ink device, but now having a third device seems odd to me.

[RaichoNikolov]

I like the idea of single use device. What is the software which is shown both on Remarkable and iPad?

[jips]

I have the RM Pro and a IPad M4 pro with textured glass. The RM is indeed for planning and making (structured) notes. Just like an agenda and notebooks. The IPad is for entertainment. I have Office 365 but prefer to work in MB Pro or the PC (provided by work).
