Re: Marking up PDFs - right out of the box, you'll be able to scribble on PDFs with your m96. For that kind of annotation, you'll be good, for strike throughs and whatnot. If you want to add real NOTES in there, it'll be more cumbersome. The on-screen keyboard isn't responsive enough to add a lot of text at a time.
You can export the PDF with notes and open on your PC. All of your scribbles come across as some sort of vector art.
Caveat - the pen only really works well with the default PDF reader (Neo Reader on the m96). I've tried using it on other PDF programs, like Adobe Reader, Xodo, etc - but they're all incredibly sluggish with the pen. The default PDF reader, however, is a champ and works really, really well.
To recap: for quick scribbles and whatnot on a PDF - m96 does the job (I do this all the time, but I'm not sharing notes with anyone, so it's okay for me).
For extensive mark-ups, red lines, notes, comments - you'll want a tablet/laptop for the responsiveness. Way too frustrating on the m96.
The m96 is an amazing device - like nothing else. YMMV as you can see on this forum. Mine works really well, and does everything I need it to do. But - then again - I've rooted mine and added Tasker and have a lot of experience messing around with Android tablets. Since you seem like you can tinker with your gadgets, I'd say give it a shot. I bought mine mostly for reading PDFs on a tablet - and for that, this thing is amazing.
