It's moreso I have so many gadgets already, got my AlphaSmart sitting under the table for when I need to document anyway, and a little Anbernic RG Rotate on my sidetable. I've been seeking a WinCE device for a while though. I might just need to get the parts for the Symbol wrist computer.

A friend was talking about distraction-free writing tools yesterday, and mentioned Freewrite models, which look well-made, but cost upwards of $700, which is nuts. I haven't really looked at this sort of thing since the Alphasmart 3000 was a thing, so I poked around a bit.

The fantasy of the one object that fixes everything feels so familiar, and it's funny how it's almost always a keyboard and a screen. I once bought a battered AlphaSmart hoping it would make me write more, and it mostly made me want to find more old gadgets.

Oh yeahhhhh. :/
Started a new story using my Alphasmart Neo2, and the lithium cell must be dead, and the bus journey jostled the darn batteries, as I tried to start it up to send it to google docs, and got the "data has changed" error.
Bye bye 2k words. I mean it's only 2k, but still.

Given the choice, should I get an hdmi to rca adapter for my old crt, or a set of torx bits so I can finally change the battery on my alphasmart?

At around 13-14, one of my test essays written in MS Word was used in the body of evidence of my teachers to expand those accommodations, not just for me, but on a wider scale. I was an early candidate for using an AlphaSmart portable word processor and it dramatically increased my note-taking.
