I have edited LARGE amounts of text. And on Onyx devices much smaller than the Max Carta. The issue with these later devices, not with the T68 I used the most, had been with lags in typing, see the first link above in my post: that issue should be fixed by forcing a wake-lock.
I hope I will be back to editing much more in a couple of months, and with the OBMC2P.

Input wise, you have to use a BT keyboard, you cannot be as productive with a keyboard on screen - and you waste real estate. Unless one used OCR with the stilo and without large extra windows on screen - I have not tried any such software. If GHI, which I do not know, uses an invisible or minimally invasive interface (not the standard virtual keyboard), then it could be tried as a backup method (with respect to a physical keyboard) on the OBMC2P, given that it should be decently powerful.
This text is BTW being written through Graffiti - but, as said, you do not want to use a virtual keyboard for serious Office Automation / Word Processing.

Now - if you wanted real desktop experience, you would need LibreOffice or whatever alternative. But that's what the "monitor" techniques are for.
