Some advantages of the Alphasmart over the DarkScreen app is that it can be carried anywhere, is instantly on and runs for up to a year on three AA batteries.
I understand the concept of DarkScreen. When I'm writing on the computer I'm often using Jstar text editor (JOE) because I don't have to worry about the format until I'm done.
