Viwoods AI Paper or Boox Go 10.3 – I've made my decision

So, between the Viwoods AI Paper and the Boox Go 10.3, I decided on the former. I expect it to arrive next week, so I plan to do some testing and write my thoughts about it on the blog. If you have any questions about the device, please write them in the comments below!
