Have had a Remarkable 2 for a couple years now. My general impressions have been consistently favorable but the use case is limited. I’m in academia, so it excels specifically because:

* it is basically an infinite shelf of notebooks that I can keep organized however I want

* it is great for reading journal articles at full size

There is a lot I wish it did, but it does work well for these!

Also in academia, subject to constant FOIA requests.

The ability to tag was added relatively recently, and has been a lifesaver. I can just hammer the email button and send legal counsel my raw notes instead of re-typing handwritten notes. It has saved me literally hundreds of hours in the last few years.

How do you manage the fairly limited storage space? I’m constantly running out.

Once I’ve read and highlighted a paper I offload it to Zotero. Only thing I keep on permanently are notes.
