berg,

It’s based upon the well established distro Arch, and thus still considered Linux. A distro is basically the Linux kernel with pre-installed packages. SteamOS only adds another layer of packages unto Arch afaik.

berg,

I think it would work great for .ePub and the like, but that it’d be to small for pdf:s (which is usually the only format you can find course books online). Interesting device though!

berg,

I bought an iPad when I was on the hunt for a purely note taking device. In the end I realized I’d enjoy having the possibility to do more things with it. To be fair though, when not in school I mostly use it to watch movies when out and about. The Remarkable 2 came on a close second second though! I do hate the locked ecosystem of Apple. The Remarkable, as I recall, is quite hackable.

berg,

In case you didn’t see the mention of BOOX Palma in this thread I thought I’d mention it. :)

berg,

I’ve come to the conclusion that note taking is best left for something else, mostly because, as you say hehe, the price. Have you by chance tried reading any technical PDFs on it (e.g. scanned course books)?
