    I'm super jelly at the desk mouse pad and the nice keyboard. I'm definitely gonna consider one of those keyboards. I would pair it with a raspberry pi for a no eye strain Linux terminal.

      Errrr I guess if it's possible to pair with a computer, from the look of it maybe not. Still really cool though, would probably get one anyway for just writing.

    I think the two things that prevent me from really wanting it are the single folder thing (I like to separate out notes and actual chapters, and I have multiple books) and the limitations on data transfer. I have a long so my current workflow is to use my phone on the bus, Steam Deck at work, laptop at home with them sync'd up via a self hosted git server. Keeps it all fairly well in sync and lets me transition between devices with very little interruption, plus it guards against data loss since each device and the git server have the documents.
    Something like that doesn't seem to be possible on this, unless I'm mistaken.

    It also comes with good low profile tactile switches.
    I wonder if they can be swapped.

      switches no. caps yes but ruins the ergonomics in my opinion.

      @@larrymarso4492 interesting! I swapped mine out for really nice xda profile keycaps and it massively improved the ergonomics for me

    they're still shipping with zero day firmware? yikes. much of what you demonstrate, including the font, is no longer accurate.

      @@larrymarso4492 That doesn't seem right, I just checked and my Alpha is definitely running the newest firmware
