I haven't said that there is a handwriting recognition directly ON the reM2 which can be saved ON the device. What I get at the E-Mail is converted text from my hand written notes and that's the thing I need to work on in OneNote.
Totally slow inferior process. Does your boss realise what a breach of security your use of the reMarkable is?

I don't think so. I have my boss at the phone and had to take some or lots of notes, this is various, and for this the Sage is a useless device. For example to get a new page takes to much time and when lying my hand on the device to start writing the Sage did the things which I mentioned (A device which does anything and goes anywhere when putting my hand on its screen is not usable for me at work, its totally useless and thats what my Sage did sometime in practise.)
If you make notes just for fun in your sparetime, than you can take a Sage for notes but not for professional daily live use.
I was so impressed by the Elipsa I bought a Sage. I use it seriously and professionally. I earlier got a reMarkable.
I have now almost entirely stopped using paper.

I eventually passed on the reMarkable, but that user swapped a Libra for a Sage plus an MS Surface compatible pen (works same as Kobo pen off an Elipsa).

You can't have given the Sage + pen a proper trial (esp. with later firmware), but obviously the reMarkable works for you. In my analysis of IT and many years of it including training, your use case is very specific to you.
I've used a Newton (over hyped) and a Palm PDA (Graffiti interface is gesturing, not writing and screen is too small 2").
Also I've had a Wacom digitiser + pen since they came out (Serial then USB). I have also the Lenovo X201 laptop/tablet with touch screen and Wacom pen.

I've seen ten people in real life use the Sage. Three have now got a Sage. Not one person was impressed with the reMarkable, except to read PDFs, but the file system only view only is poor for books. I had to install KOReader on the Elipsa to have similar PDF viewing, but now not needed since Kobo implemented PDF zoom/crop per document.

It's good to have choice and I welcome the Lenovo product. I nearly bought a Kindle Scribe for PDF proofing, which is not a hobby, but work. However it seems to be the least suitable on the market for it despite the 300 vs 227 dpi.
If I didn't have the Elipsa I'd maybe be using the reMarkable for PDF proofing, but document management is a failure with no Calibre support, no MTP or USB-MS.
