NoteSlate - just a notebook and nothing more. For $ 99
Some guys decided to give the world a miracle:
This is an ePapper notebook with an A4 touchscreen for only $ 99.
Details and pictures inside.
This is an electronic notebook A4. With it, you can take notes, draw diagrams, write lectures. All this is stored in the internal memory or on the SD-flash drive. In the future, these records can be viewed on the device itself or dropped on the computer, and in models with a wireless module, you can immediately post to the Internet. The device will obviously interest students: now he writes lectures alone, and then distributes to the others, leaving the institute's copy office without profit! Also, it will be interesting to those who need to quickly share sketches, diagrams, and similar records. Well, the very possibility of having an electronic copy of handwritten records attracts me a lot.
Of course, the device will hardly replace a paper notebook; I personally will find the necessary entry many times faster in a regular notebook, but as a convenient addition for drafts and quick notes, it is ideal.
The developers themselves are positioning it as “just a notebook”, separately emphasizing the lack of the Internet browsing feature.

Once again I remind you about the price. For all this magnificence, they ask for $ 99. By the way, it will be sold in their own online store.
