Off topic, but I remember a project I read about a few years ago of making solar panel based motorways... You really get to harness belief for that.

Anyway, as Gimble nailed it, I was more concerned on how can battery technology match intermittent powem sources. That of Perovskite solar cells is quite interesting. We will soon able to recharge the tablet by typing on it, talking to it, shaking it!

I vote for exercise bike. If that is the only way to charge your tablets and phones, we won't have any obese children any more.

Have you ever seen Linus' (Torvalds) exercise desk? There is a video on YT.
Honestly, I have a similar setup - I use it mostly for videos (tapis + orientable arms to hold devices).
Of course, replace it with a bike, or a bike (stability) / elliptical machine (posture) crossover... Yours may sound like an extreme idea, but it is not ; )

Anyone else that lost Notes in the Scribble / Note app? Very annoying and makes the Note unreliable in that sense.

Haven't experienced that yet myself, but then I haven't been using my Note in that way much yet. However, that's one of the reasons why I hope they enable the screenshot function soon.

I have, however, had the Neoreader 2 app crash on me quite a few times. And it will not always remember the page which it crashed on, taking me back to my previous session instead. I haven't been annotating or note taking when this has happened so I don't know what would happen to the note in such a situation, but it is a little concerning.

I make heavy use of my sideloaded dictionaries when reading. Not sure if that is what is causing the app to crash. Not a huge deal for me. However, if it crashed while taking important notes, it could be. Something to be wary of. If I were working on anything important, I would make frequent saves by exiting and re-entering the app until they get the bugs worked out.

I saved one particular note several times during a meeting, closed it. Opened the page later in the day only find some header details... the majority of my notes on that page were gone.

Yikes. I think a screenshot function is imperative until they can work all the bugs out and make it much more reliable.

Hello!
I just got Boox Note.
It is awesome except one thing: noticeable screen defliction while pressing with finger or stylus.
Can someone, who already got theirs piece confirm or deny: is this problem of model design? Or I have defect piece.

Thank you!

Sort of noticed it too, I think it has to do with the flexibile screen. The bezels appear 'flexible' too, they move around at times, but then snap back into place.

I'm not sure Amazon include also the protective cover! Is not explicitly mentioned.

Seems to be a separate purchase:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/BOOX-10-3-C...nyx+boox+cover

But this is a cover, or a carry case? Unclear from stock photos

I don't know if is called cover or carry case, anyway it is included in the price on:
https://ereader.store/en/e-book-read...x-note-25.html
... so, in the end, I think I'll buy it there!
