I wonder what the real experience of writing documents and typing code would be on this. Is the latency acceptable to not feel "detached"? Regardless, I am exciting because honestly my eyes are killing me staring at three or four monitors all day long.

Not trying to mom you, but have you tried turning down the brightness until it’s the same as a sheet of paper in the same location? It’s made a big difference for me, but takes some getting used to.

No. It's okay. I appreciate the advice.

I have an Onyx Boox 2 (e-ink tablet with hdmi input), and tried to code on it. Can't speak about the latency because it's not the same product. But what I realized is: you lose syntax coloring. Try to turn your monitor black and white to test if you find the lack of coloring acceptable.

This is useful advice.
