I do a lot of reading and research, and have remarkable 1, 2, and a boox ultra C. What I need to do dictates which tool I use.
The REM1 for reading. Some casual, most are late-medieval research PDFs.
The REM2 and type folio for writing / typing /taking notes on the REM 1 and boox PDFs. (Same kind of content.
Use the boox ultra C to read/ annotate/ highlight large PDFs (over 5m-10m) because REM doesn’t handle large docs well.
The REMs are easier on my eyes, and the textured screen is easier to write on.
Also use the Boox when I have a pdf I need to annotate and export that shifts the highlighting and annotations drastically and makes them unusable when those particular PDFs are exported out of REM. (REM flaw. Does not happen using Acrobat Pro on the Boox.)
Which means yeah, I have to test each new pdf on a REM and the Boox to see whether the shift will happen on export.
It’s a pain, but the system works for me. Have been blasted here for having more than one REM. But hey, they’re for work, not fun or school. If I could do the work with only one device, I’d have only one device.
If it’s an offer only to Connect subscribers, why would it be a discounted folio? Is there an advantage to using a folio through Connect? Then again, I have Connect and a folio and didn’t get the notice…
