I am actually wondering to see I buy one. Here is some links that I find interesting to consider before buying (some of those do answer some previous comments) :

* Here is a [previous occurrence on HN](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16321531).

* Here is a ["curated list of (code) projects related to the reMarkable tablet"](https://github.com/reHackable/awesome-reMarkable).

* Here is a [framework](https://github.com/canselcik/libremarkable) for "developing applications with native refresh support for Remarkable Tablet " (with a growing Rust APi if you fancy that).

Some notes :

* As you will see by exploring some the links, the tablet is Linux-based so it is definitely possible to piggy-back on some API (see https://github.com/reHackable/awesome-reMarkable#apis for examples)

* A bunch of alternative synchronization tools have already been implemented (see https://github.com/reHackable/awesome-reMarkable#cloud-tools)

* The company seems really attached to software updates to improve the device (see https://blog.remarkable.com/).

* From all above, I think that the device could reach a critical mass of adoption and blossom in uses and third-party development but only if enough people engage with the device. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am wondering if we are not too pessimistic about feedback for that application : why not use physical chord-like movements to different actions (delete characters, words, sentences) or like making distinct handsigns assigned to more used phonemes and less used one to chords of several finger joins like index / thumb, etc. Would be weird at first but, as learning vim taught me, building a coherent grammar can definitely make a big difference.

Depending on your profiency : - you can actually contribute to the compiler itself : https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Ais... - you can contribute to the low-level abstracting graphics library : https://github.com/gfx-rs/gfx/labels/contributor-friendly - and more generally you can also take a look at the weeksletter (and previous iterations of it to see where help was requested) :Week's letter : https://this-week-in-rust.org/
