@jwo There have been *many* attempts and all appear to fall short because they keep targeting vibes rather than engineering. A modern “digital typewriter” like the Zerowriter (https://zerowriter.ink) is infinitely outclassed by a 90s #Alphasmart DANA (https://mateuszurbanowicz.com/2022/06/29/retro-writing-10-alphasmart-dana) in every measure. Like all things, _we are going backwards_. The #PocketMage (https://pocketmage.org) is interesting as a homebrew device but it’s still light years away from even a #Psion 3
