I had a similar experience. When I had one, I used it frequently but when I lost it, I never felt inclined to buy a replacement. I never loved it.

I feel that this _type_ of device may have a mass-market future but we are a few generations away from a device which could have mass-market appeal. The software is clearly not good enough but even in terms of hardware, the slow e-ink refresh rate makes for a painful UX. So despite all the technology, doing anything more than using it as an etch-a-sketch was irritating.

Also what I came to realise is that most of the stuff that I fill the many half-used notebooks lying about my home is of very temporary value - often only useful for an hour or a a day. When I switched to using the Remarkable, the issue of losing information went away but not in a good way; I now felt burdened with keeping the Remarkable "organised" - trying to categorize pages, de-duplicating notes, "garbage collecting", etc. Paper notebooks, which you fill and toss away don't burden you with this task.
