       My friends at [[1RG]] in Toronto now have a [public events calendar](https://lu.ma/1rg-calendar). Inspiring! I want to figure out what we can do at [[Z Space]].

       I got an email from [[Daylight Computer]] today telling me I’m getting a partial refund now that they have retail pricing announced on their e-ink tablet.

       Oh right! I bought into their founders round way back in 2022 and [wrote a post about how they might run their developer ecosystem](https://bmannconsulting.com/blog/2022/06/01/kickstarting-app-ecosystem/). Exciting!

       > This is one of the most talked about devices in Silicon Valley. It was created by Daylight Computer, a company started by Anjan Katta to solve his problem — he suffers from ADHD and wanted something that allowed him few distractions and allowed him to work with intent. The reason I am excited about that new tablet is because it is optimized around reading, writing, and productivity. This is very different from the tablets we have had so far.

       > What the company has created is a beautiful tablet — about the size of a normal iPad Air. It is just a “little less than white,” white, with a gorgeous screen. It is very simple, elegant, and lovely. It has an e-ink screen, and the matte monochrome paper-like display is optimized for reading, writing, and note-taking. It refreshes at 60 frames per second, a pretty big deal for e-ink displays. This is much less stressful on the eye and easy to use even in direct sunlight. It has 8 GB memory, about 128 GB in-built storage, an 8-core chip, microphones, speakers, and a powerful battery
