I use the Onyx Boox Palma for a portable eink drafting setup. It's worked pretty well. I wrote about it here: https://liza.io/portable-writing-setup-with-onyx-boox-palma/
One of the appealing features on the Note Max was the screen size (13.3"). How do you find working on such a small screen?
Perhaps you should have chosen a better one?!
...Now I kind of don't want to fix it :D
I fixed the second one normally because that's just embarrassing. I guess at least we know it was really written by a human? ;)
