I know what you mean with taking notes on a tablet, but the reMarkable is very good at that aspect. Nothing at all like an iPad: the e ink makes it look like paper, and even the tip of the (passive) stylus feels like writing on actual paper (it "scratches" ever so slightly, even if it obviously doesn't actually scratches the screen).
It also doesn't do fancy stuff: it's black and white, and doesn't do OCR on device at all. It's basically just a notepad that is synced to your other devices (without the manual picture step, and you can get svg instead, etc)
To me it's too a notepad what a kindle is to books: a single purpose device that does it's job very well.
Oh yeah, and about two weeks of battery life is pretty good.
I realize I'm starting to sound a bit like a sales rep... but I'm just a fanboy user.
