I still don't understand why they don't add native onenote integration. I would buy one in a heartbeat if they did. The whole "well just email it to yourself" workflow is horrible and a non-starter. It seems like such an oversight that I can't quite wrap my head around it. I have no doubt MS would be willing to work with them and it should be entirely do-able given the linux underpinnings of the tablet.

Maybe by the time there's a reMarkable3.

I personally am very glad that nothing related to MS is anywhere near it. The device is pretty much perfect. Would be nice if they supported Japanese handwriting recognition though.

If you're a power-user sshing the framebuffer over + tesseract-jpn (or tesseract-jpn-vert) works splendidly for me. You can get it working in 100 lines of python from mix-matching existing scripts.

There's a nice 3rd party python library for reading/writing files to/from the tablet, so really you can do anything you want with it. The tablet is very much just a linux computer with an e-ink display attached, and they make it very easy to ssh in and do whatever you want.

An open source OneNote integration project for the Remarkable was just unveiled: https://github.com/jamesf91/RemarkableSync

Totally agree with you on that one. OneNote would be a great thing to have on those things for sure. It's a nice little device, but doesn't do all that much.
