I have one.
The really good thing is that it's open. Like you can ssh into it from day one. No cloud forced on you. refreshing.
I think my #1 use is to jot down notes during a phone call. It is like an infinite stack of post-its. Jotting does not get in the way of a phone call.
#2 is reading ebooks and pdfs. It's a little slow working with .epub books, but with pdf files it is fast.
Actually I convert ebooks to pdf format using calibre. It's a pretty good experience. I've figured out the fonts, font sizes, margins and so forth, and made that my calibre conversion default. Works well for me.
