i think the essential factor to a lot of people is the kindle screen.

im not a heavy reader so screen doesn't matter much to me. my issue is that I can only read for 5 min max on my mac/iphone/ipad, and then get easily distracted by other apps/alerts. but i can focus on reading when using kindle. i think im probably not alone. although i prefer 7" screen size.

for people who take notes frequently while reading, i agree this is a good option.

I've been using my Scribe daily since it came out. I love it. I take notes, draw, and mostly read. I would say if you are looking for an e-reader first and a note-taking device 2nd, this is it. The e-reader stuff has honestly been great with all the upgrades. I can't go back to reading without having the ability to write on pages and annotate.

FYI, this was the same price the base model sold for new on sale. You basically get the older premium pen. The new premium pen doesn't have a hard plastic 'eraser.'

Also, the 'new' scribe has the same internals, they just made them in different colors. There's only one firmware version for all scribe models.

Still ad-laden? I still can't bring myself to upgrade my cellular Oasis I got a deal on.
I think I saw somewhere that Scribe is Ad Free by default.

Mine came in yesterday, and I'm thoroughly impressed with it already. I know the reviews have never been stellar on these things, and perhaps that's because of the original price point, but coming from a much older Kindle it feels much more responsive and even the sketching is quicker than I anticipated. Quite nice overall given the ~$200 after a 20% trade in.

Some considerations…

If all you want is to read books and write on them, and don't think a 10.3 inch screen is too big?

You'll be happy with this.

If you can afford more than this and need a tablet more so than an ereader and notebook combo?

A Remarkable is a better bet.

Close Friend has a SuperNote and with its smaller size, I'd prefer it if I could've gotten it for this price point
