    I would use it by printing to it from my phone or my laptop and I would use it to review things and write notes on them
Uh...interesting! I'd honestly be quite happy with just PDF functionality, but this would also be an interesting workflow. I could totally see myself finding either documentation, tutorials, or other things to print to then be able to write notes on top of.

Very interesting. This is a workflow I could get behind of.

A number of my colleagues print to paper for code review. They find it easier to read and markup in that format.

I personally can't stand the idea of using that much paper, but I dig the future-y idea of printing to a read/markup slate, and automatically posting the markup to phabricator.

I imagine legal and other business functions that are review heavy could similarly benefit.

That's why I like to print code in an ultra-small font with 4 pages per sheet, duplex.
