Several different types of pens: ballpoint, calligraphy, pencil, mechanical pencil… all have slightly different feels on the tablet Easy tap to navigate - you can use a finger tablet-style, but the Marker feels more efficient Erase tool is just cool. The Remarkable is smart enough to know when you haven’t totally erased something and will clean up the rest. Initial thoughts: I don’t use a physical pen anymore, in fact I always struggle to find a pen in my house on the rare occasion I need one. But physically writing things down has always helped my memory retention, and the Remarkable 2 taps into that as an extremely polished writing tablet I’m not much of a drawer/doodler/etc. There are plenty of really good use cases for Remarkable 2 that I won’t take advantage of. Holy crap, signing document…
