    Still no Kindle Colorsoft for Australia?

    • +1

      Any idea when this might be my other half keeps dropping hints and I have no clue!

      • +4

        I got a Kobo Libra Colour and love it

        • +3

          Second this, the integration with overdrive and google drives are game changers

          • @designate: Ohh this would be handy for sourcing books from other places! I will check it out thank you all very much!

            • @warwagon86: Remarkable Paper Pro is another option

              • @Elusive8985: I love her but do I love her that much??? Lol its pricey but it does look very slick. Will throw the ideas to her and she what she comes back with! Thank you

                  @warwagon86: Haha yeah it is pricey!

                  Kindle Colorsoft had issues on launch IIRC, it seems like all the colour e-ink screens need another generation to mature (lack of contrast being the major downside).

                  If she doesn't need colour the kobo devices are probably your best bet for cheaper products (they might even do a colour model now).

                  Really depends on her use case, I'd argue that Supernote make the best note-taking e-ink (that is also repairable and has long term software support) but you pay for it - and I gladly have

                @Elusive8985: apparently the remarkable is a godawful ebook reader, if that is what someone wants as well.

            • +1

              @warwagon86: It's already easy too source books from other places with Kindle, Kindle even supports ePub natively now https://www.amazon.com/gp/sendtokindle

        • Same here. Battery lasts for a long time too!!!

          AA is your friend for all your book needs.

      • I wish I knew. Only so I could see book covers in colour.

  • -1

    But this one has no color display

    • +1

      Link to the colour display deal?

  • What improvements does the 2024 model have over the previous generation?

  • My partner's looking for something like this to take notes and annotate documents like research papers (mostly pdfs). Is this a good option?
    Looks like it'll do the trick and other options like Remarkable 2 are stupid expensive.

    • take a look at Boox, and supernote as well. I'm currently doing the research for my wife as well atm. Supernote seems to be winning our vote currently

      • I'd avoid boox personally, device doesn't get support for long.

        I have a Supernote Manta (tried the Nomad with the 30 day returns but it was too small) and bias aside, still strongly recommend it - great device support (software and hardware) and built for repairability. Software has been flawless for me.

        Its not as 'connected' as the boox but still enough for most

        • yeah honestly, I think all she really needs is a connected calendar, the ability to email her notes and yeah decent note taking. Another feature that was leaning us towards the Supernote was the backend automatic note searching that Remarkable does not have unless you purposefully tag things yourself manually.

          • @ONEMariachi: Wow, I didn't realise the remarkable required tagging for handwriting search!

            I haven't used a connected calendar or email (not compatible with my email or calendar provider at this stage), but the note-taking is great.
            Gestures can take a little to learn but the writing feel is amazing.

            I wish there was a pen with the ceramic nib and gesture button, but the only way to do that atm is with some DIY

            • @Elusive8985: Yeah seems like a huge missed opportunity on the remarkable that I'm amazed they don't have. Seems like a huge reason for going digital in the first place in my mind.

    • research docs can have tiny fonts and images that you might want to zoom in on. id recommend a tablet instead, and to go bigger than 10" unless she really wants to hold it while writing

      • Good point. She wants it quite portable and she has tiny hands, so was actually thinking 10-11" was pushing it already. I like the size of the iPad mini. But it's expensive too.

        • if she can try out an ipad mini in store and she likes it, go for it. i say that as an apple hater

        • I'm not sure anyone has properly nailed PDF documents on a small e-ink screen (or any small screen tbh)

          Could see if the Daylight tablet does it any better?

      Cheapest iPad with pencil. Much more versatile than this

        Didn't realise ipads come in eink.

        • +1

          They didn't say they needed eink

          • +1

            @redcafej: the deal is about an eink device. It's basic common sense.

            • -3

              @ONEMariachi: They were asking if this was a good option. Of which I provided one. Back off.

              • @redcafej: Didn't mean to upset you little one. Was simply pointing out it's not e-ink. The ipad is a completely different class of device, and serves a very different purpose, but you do you.

                  @ONEMariachi: Dude, admit you're wrong. He was responding to "My partner's looking for something like this to take notes and annotate documents like research papers (mostly pdfs). Is this a good option?" and he is absolutely right that iPad with pencil is a better option.

                    @fredblogs: No worries baby girl.

                    • @ONEMariachi: You do you, "Didn't realise ipads come in eink." Thanks for the pointless comments.

                        @fredblogs: You’re very welcome sweetheart

                        @fredblogs: Nice Entropy Rising alt account bro. You're the coolest. Use your brain for half a second champ. If OP thought it was a good idea, don't you think they would have responded or at the bare minimum upvoted them? It's clearly the wrong thing, and anyone with half a brain cell knows that someone looking for E-ink is not interested in traditional screens. It's like offering an ipad to someone wanting a Switch because they both play games.

                          @ONEMariachi: OP said "I like the size of the iPad mini. But it's expensive too." but keep doing you.

    The closed system is useless for notetaking and PDF reading for academic or professional purposes as it is very inconvenient to sync or export.
