Seems to fit your needs perfectly, depending on what you expect with sync or export to desktop. I got mine just as a replacement for handwritten notes. Most people disappointed with RM seem to be so because they expect the device to be way more than a digital notepad.

True but then again one wouldn't necessarily need a moleskine ๐ I really like them too. But found a good alternative to them on a local store.
But anyway, yes paper trail seems to to work for me. And write everything in the keyboard js also something I don't like. So the option to write on paper and move it to digital sounds enticing.
I won't go to rm2 right now, will try rocketbook for now to see if it fits my workflow
I have used Rocketbooks in the past, and they were decent. I found that what I really wanted was my notes in digital format to begin with (handwritten or OCR). I do still have a couple of Rocketbooks kicking around, though!
Its a funny little book. Lets see how it enters my workflow, I would prefer a more direct way to import things in notes organizer such as Evernote or Onenote, instead of taking a photo but for 30โฌ I cant complain and it seems a nice way to enter in this world eheh
You need to know yourself here, and unfortunately "can't get organized with a paper notebook" is a tell. If you're not organized generally, you need to figure out and be honest with yourself as to whether having a digital version of paper will help you to be more disciplined.
There is no assistance or automation on the reMarkable platform. It is the digital equivalent of a filing cabinet in which you store ring binders, books and paper print outs. You have to bring the order to the filing cabinet.
The Tag system is very rudimentary - essentially you apply a text tag or more than one text tag to a document - and you can go to a screen where you can filter for all documents with a specific tag or group of tags. But again, you need to figure out how to make that work for you.
The one thing that the device would be guaranteed to solve for is having all your notes in one digital place if you use the reMarkable for all of your note-taking. But without a system that you bring to the table, what you risk ending up with is a digital version of clutter.
That is very spot on. The problem is that I tried to have different notebooks for different situations. Example: one for client quotes, other for tasks (before adding them to clickup), other for meetings.
But then I don't have something to filter by topic or something. Granted I could have a notebook for every client but still...
I'm going to try a cheap alternative (38eur from amazon) for now to see how the workflow goes and organize it later on evernote or Microsoft notes.
