It looks nice, but I don't get it. What's the use case ?
Distraction-free typing work like writing or coding
An antique mechanical typewriter is the best thing I've found for writing. Useless for coding, so there's the product above for that
You can write code on a typewriter just fine. It's compiling it that becomes an issue.
Although, if you mean to share or edit or anything that would require digitization, you'll need to transfer your typed pages as an additional step.
Thanks. I guess for writing I can see the point. But isn't the screen small for coding ?
The one in the link is a 7.9 inch touch screen, looks actually pretty decent, size-wise: https://www.waveshare.com/7.9inch-dsi-lcd.htm
I love the design and idea behind these things, I just wish I had a good excuse to use one.
I think its a version of the Raspberry PI 500+.
