So far the info I’m seeing is from remarkable site and the way they word it doesnt answer the real question (like they’re trying to hide something). I dont think I’ll keep it if I cant use it without paying a monthly fee.

Basically I need to be able to transfer files (both directions) in a couple different ways. I need to be able to get files to and from Google drive for cloud storage purposes and would be nice If i could ultimately get files into a git repo on gitlab (even if it means more than one step to get it there). Also it would be nice if i could connect via ssh through the command line on my laptop (running ubuntu linux) to transfer files using the laptop.

Should I send this thing back or is it possible to do these things without a remarkable connect account?

    Well imho converting to text is a pretty big deal feature; and, to be honest, if they were holding back features and making you pay for them, well I would just find that offensive. Thankfully that isn’t the case but if it were I don’t think that’s the right way to get people to buy more from you.

      well that was the case on the original connect. They removed many features from the “free” tier and put them behind the connect sub. They have since backtracked on that
