Me and My Scribe
The Kindle Scribe is niche e-ink technology that pays off in productivity
As an early adopter of many technologies, my desk, office, and house are filled with the detritus of tech past and their promises of life changing productivity. I have iPhones going back to the original, digital recorders, iPads, special microphones, earphones, RAID drive, keyboards, video shuttle, transcription equipment, document scanner, and about a bazillion dongles, dingles, and doodads that were needed to connect all those to the multitude of Macs that have crossed my desk.
Yet the one purchase that I’ve recently made that has had the biggest impact on my productivity in more than 15 years is the most analog piece of tech I could have bought: a Kindle Scribe.
A frickin’ e-ink Kindle.
So, let me say right now it’s more than just a frickin’ Kindle, although Kindles are amazing (I’ve owned many, going back to the original origami-looking Kindle Oprah promoted). The Scribe is a Kindle that’s also a notepad.
I know, you’re yawni…
