    I will jump immediately no second thoughts once any open phone comes with a good stylus.

        Taking impromptu notes is what I use it exclusively for. Also to draw quick diagrams and such. The diagrams drawing helps especially.

        Just word note taking can be done with any old notes app. But sketches and diagrams. That’s where I use it most.

            Yup. Try drawing a diagram and arrows with lines beginning and ending exactly where you want it intuitively with your finger. Not too mention you don’t need to unlock your phone, navigate to an app to do it. Just pop out your pen and go. No need to keep anyone waiting if you’re in the middle of discussing something.

            Also one of the reasons I was looking to get a fold because the screen real estate was lacking. But they took away pen support in 7 so what the heck.

        If someone comes up with full colour reflected e-ink with refresh rate better than 24 fps, absolutely.

          Theres the Daylight Computer, that has a 60fps display which is “like e-paper”. (eink is the propietary name, epaper is the general name of the tech)

          I wish this tech could receive more funding for research and development.

          That’s not going to happen with the current tech. Maybe someone comparable comes out with those specs.
