Episode notes
Buying The Nomad After Trying One
- I finally picked up a SuperNote Nomad after trying Blake's at a coffee shop and watching discounts on the site.
- I bought a white Nomad, a dark blue vegan leather folio, and a Sunset Heart of Metal 2 pen and have used it for about a week.
Purpose-Built Focus Beats Feature Creep
- The SuperNote Nomad intentionally focuses on note-taking rather than being a multi-purpose tablet.
- That focused design creates a better digital writing experience by limiting distracting features.
Stylus Quality Transforms Writing
- The Heart of Metal 2 stylus delivers the best digital writing feel the speaker has used due to its heft and ceramic tip.
- The ceramic tip won't wear out and pairs well with the screen protector for a superior handwriting experience.
