[QUOTE=Cootey;4133789]I’ve been experimenting with the Notebooks on the new Kobo Elipsa. There are pluses and minuses, as you can imagine. I’ll share my thoughts here and invite you to ask questions or post your own observations.

Your review of the Elipsa is really helpful. I'm dithering about placing an order. Being able to mark up a book, add marginalia, is so appealing. But I'm uncertain about the Elipsa's note-taking capability. It's good to know that while there's a lag time, it's possible to get used to it and make compensations. I watched a YouTube review that mentioned the tapping noise the pen makes on the screen as you draw or write. Maybe something else you can get used to.

I'm going to read through your review and comments again, slowly this time!
