I love the prospect of a digital paper tablet, but the cost right now makes it so out of reach. I'd expect to pay about half of what I'd pay for an ipad. Right now, iPad or Surface / Surface Pro seems like it makes more sense, plus I'd bet the pen latency on the Sony is a lot worse than the other 2 options given it's e-ink.

Pretty expensive paper tho

I'm still waiting for a hybrid LCD/e-ink screen in the iPad. Apple even patented it: https://arstechnica.com/apple/20...

Awesome.

This is how it works, right? Expensive cutting edge tech floated out there to gauge user feedback and interest, and then if it performs even remotely well, then we see the cost gradually drop/various tiers/models released. Kudos to Sony for doing something different. For me, though? A smartpen with data capture built in + my Moleskin are great, or my Surfacebook, and my Kindle Oasis for reading. I'm all about the device consolidation, and if I'm to carry another battery-powered piece of kit, it has to be truly integral to my process. Let's see how this does - it's a damn pretty piece of kit, I'll say!

Not a bad idea, the price point is kind of a downer. Why force an application to sink? There are tons of cloud solutions that could probably be much more suited for storing your notes.
