I suppose this is a direct competitor for the reMarkable 2. It's certainly a niche market. I know that the analysts at Amazon have a better idea of what will sell than I do, but I'm surprised that this seems to be what they're releasing instead of a new Oasis.

On the other hand, I do suppose that largely ereader innovation has reached a point where the only big changes to be made (colour eink not being in a 'premium' state yet) are to the primary device function, rather than to the device's functionality.

That is to say...

Maybe I'm truly out of touch, but I just don't see an eink digital notepad being the more profitable over a USB-C port on a device with buttons. And I don't even like buttons!
