Come on, /g/.
They're only $500
Does it have vim installed?

How would I shitpost on it?
>>53885176
This, and more important, this >>53885197
I will make a kickstarter about a notebook. (I mean the thing made out of paper, not the stupid computer)
Hipsters will love that shit, cause so retro and styleish and crap...
>>53885176
That's what it's for? People have shitter concentration than me?
>>53885223
Let's pool ideas on how to take money from retarded hipsters, /g/
How about connecting two empty PBR cans with a wire and sell it as "distractionless" communications device?
>>53885176
This. Just turn your WiFi off for fucks sake.
desu if it could run ssh i'd get it
i'm hoping someone hacks it
>>53885197
You don't!
You do, however, sync files to the cloud, rather than save on to a flash card.
Also behold the large screen perfect for writing.

Make the cans out of brushed aluminum and your are done. Also, we need sponsership from Starbucks.
>>53885062
Or you could buy a 50ยข composition notebook...
why is this thing so expensive?
the keyboard, display, and guts can't cost more than $250
>>53885357
Not pricey enough...
>>53885363
>why is this thing so expensive?
so only idiots will buy it
I have no need for a hipster edition AlphaSmart.
>>53885386
This desu
if this was 400$ and the eInk screen was twice as big I'd actually buy it
>>53885363
Not to mention that you could get a full-featured word processor in the 90s for probably the same price, even counting inflation.
And they could do formatting and had a fucking printer stuck on the back.
You could probably manufacture one of these for next to nothing these days. You wouldn't even need the printer because who prints these days?

>>>/Starbucks/
>>53885322
Even worse, it's hard-coded to directly sync everything through their own little cloud-service.
So if that 2-man company goes bankrupt (one can only hope) your already fairly useless device is now completely useless.
>>53885469
And your masterpiece is gone forever.
>>53885315
They made no statements regarding the electronics.
It's probably very simple.
You should be able to replicate all its functionality with just an ESP8266
>>53885176
Even if you do want a "distractionless" alternative why not just buy the cheapest old laptop you can find and just install whatever text editor you want on it?
Or ask a family member. Everyone knows I like to tinker with old stuff so I'm treated as a dumping ground. I don't mind though since I get some interesting stuff, like a PCMCIA card for PCMCIA cards.
>>53885062
Why would I use that over this?
God, can you imagine people going to a busy Starbucks with that thing and claim that they're working free from distractions?
You can't even go to an actual quiet empty place with this, since it depends on wifi.
>>53885322
I'm pretty sure that screen is 4:3, and they used the aluminum body to cut off the bottom fourth for the clock and date.
Why the fuck would they do that when the screen is so fucking small?
>>53885820
just how many niggahertz up this bad goy?
>>53885869
About 2 Nighz
>>53885869
25MHz
>>53885310
On behalf of some other anons with the same request, I still need a torrent of that folder.
>>53885322
>Hello world, this is the Hemmingwrite.

Shouldn't it be :^) ?

Word processors never existed it seems.
