2021-08-15 15:37:41 <remexre     > RK3566-based, looks like
2021-08-15 15:39:21 <nihilazo    > it's a pine device, though
2021-08-15 15:39:27 <remexre     > case looks like it'd make it harder to lose the pen too lol
2021-08-15 15:39:45 <remexre     > nihilazo: I mean that's a plus for me -- less worry about bricking it
2021-08-15 15:40:14 <nihilazo    > so probably never going to get past the point of a prototype, software-wise
2021-08-15 15:40:52 <nihilazo    > I say this as a year or so daily pinetab user
2021-08-15 15:41:02 <nihilazo    > thing is janky af
2021-08-15 15:41:45 <remexre     > rip; I've got the pinephone and a pinebook; storage space is actually by problem with the latter
2021-08-15 15:42:10 <remexre     > the former... well, the I should try plasma mobile, but the pmos gnome UI has enormous latency for typing on the keyboard
2021-08-15 15:42:26 <remexre     > so I started-and-never-finished rolling my own "dumbphone" UI for it
2021-08-15 15:43:04 <nihilazo    > I should try plasma
2021-08-15 15:43:08 <remexre     > (stopped when I got to the "doing anything involving telephony involves dbus"...)
2021-08-15 15:43:20 <nihilazo    > might be less janky
2021-08-15 15:45:12 <eris[m]1    > the software in pine devices is steadily improving, no?
2021-08-15 15:45:14 <eris[m]1    > re phones n laptops
2021-08-15 15:45:53 <remexre     > definitely laptops have
2021-08-15 15:46:11 <eris[m]1    > i dont think many of the ppl who have the knowhow for software improvement are the same people who would use a tablet
2021-08-15 15:46:23 <eris[m]1    > specificslly de software stuff
2021-08-15 15:49:40 <siraben     > remexre: I just saw it
2021-08-15 16:03:29 <siraben     > remexre: I don't know, it looks good but I worry about how polished the experience would be.
2021-08-15 16:04:04 <siraben     > especially for a device I would use daily, reMarkable's xochitl (the UI) is already quite polished and it would take a lot of FOSS efforts to get feature parity.
2021-08-15 16:04:41 <siraben     > plus, pen latency is important, I want to see videos on that
2021-08-15 16:05:25 <f-a         > not same product but https://a.uguu.se/jbraHvuG.mp4 (from a friend)

2021-08-15 16:05:46 <f-a         > if you people want a letter, btw, I can send one
2021-08-15 16:08:49 <remexre     > I was a pen+paper person until one of my notebooks got stolen...
2021-08-15 16:09:07 <f-a         > yeah that is a risk
