New Kindle ScribeColorsoft 2025

I fear that it will be still too much of a kindle with just some note taking attached. I tried the last two iterations of the Scribe and found the software so lacking, that I couldn’t keep them. Even though from the hardware point of view they were great.

Disappointing development

I 2nd that, a function which i miss from Kindle scribe. And almost all other premium pens. A shortcut either on the pen or reader.

Saw a floor desk on this sub. I thought I was only one.

Work notes mostly. I like to journal and have a habit tracker there as well. I also converted my kindle books to the format it can handle and it also acts as my e-reader as well! I actually first bought a Scribe and didn't like the slowness and hiccups it seemed to have. The scribe has a browser (sl

Looking for imaginary note-taking device

If a device is pocketable, then it is too small to read PDFs on it. The closest compromise is an 8" device like the Viwoods Mini or the Supernote Nomad. You can read/annotate PDFs and write on them, and they will fit in a coat pocket. A little cramped, though. The only truly pocketable e-ink devices

Remarkable2 or Scribe for note taking?

Scribe is reading first device. Note taking features are possible and are ok, but are lacking when compared to competition, even remarkable. Idk about kindle ocr but remarkable's ocr is respectably good. It still depends on handwriting style mostly. For example, while supernote ocr is perceived as s

По поводу электронных книг

Kindle scribe. Со стилусом, большой экран, подсветка, тачскрин. В последнем обновлении добавили возможность на страницах книг рисовать стилусом, раньше можно было только в заметках такое делать. Но стоимость не демократичная. Я свою за 36 брал пару лет назад.

Empfehlung für E-Book-Reader und Seiten zum Downloaden

Farbdisplay ist ein wenig ein Knackpunkt. Ich habe einen kindle colorsoft. Das geht zwar schon, aber es ist halt sehr matt und nicht so viele Farben zur Auswahl. Über Calibre kann man relativ gut Bücher als sideload hochladen. Notizen sind aber nicht ideal. Mich reizt dafür der neue kindle scribe co

Why don't people tell it like it is?

I had Go 10.3 for a year or so. It took me a while to get used to their complex menus. The only downside for me was the lack of front-light. I took Kindle Scribe 2024, and to be honest, after Boox the OS of Kindle seems so limited for note-taking. Now, I am contemplating between Note Air 5C and Go 1

Editing on Paper

Print out a few double spaced pages and give it a whirl! A lot of people say you catch a lot more when editing pen to paper. I learned to edit that way and started feeling guilty about how much paper I was wasting learning to edit stories that probably would never see the light of day. So I learned
