I do not know who is the target user for M92 from the view of Onyx. Maybe even Onyx doesn't know....

If you know of some free doc management systems, maybe they could be ported to M92 either by Onyx or by Onyx user community.

M92 is an open system. We are not fully dependent on the producer, we may reshape their product to our needs.

It is a nice piece of hardware, so hopefully, the software, now lagging behind, will catch up.
All the relevant Apps and programs are available on Android, Windows, Apple.
So it is not a mystery what should be implemented into the device.
They are using software they have to develop on their own - something that cannot be done by small company - or a big one.
The other platforms can rely on thousands of contributors, and users pay for the programs they need. For Example Mantano for reading/handling PDFs.
If you know what is out there and have some sense of realism you have to come to the conclusion that "catching up" will never happen.
They seem to be pretty clueless.
Dead end street - proprietary Linux and a small user base.
But I think you gave a pretty good description of the state of things - you could have included PB as well ...
