Change Chat

In this special edition of Change Chat, recorded live on Sunday, September 27th at 3:00pm (US Central Time), @kitbetts-masters , @davidtablettech , @VladimirKostek , and I discussed the ever-evolving landscape of e-ink devices. Where you do fall on the spectrum? Are you all in on maximum power like the new @BOOX.global Note Air 6C, more minimalist like the @remarkablepaper or @supernote_official devices, or somewhere in between? Join us for a lively, quick-witted, and maybe even irreverent conversation. Of course, we found areas of agreement and friendly contention.

In this episode of Change chat, recorded on November 28, 2025, I talk with my son Trey about his use of the Supernote platform as a design engineer. This was a highly requested discussion by the community, and I think we should do it more often.
