Purchased for use in recording D&D campaign notes. Product works great in this capacity.

Not great

Have only used it a few times but it lags when you are trying to do things. It also has screen burn already. Its just really not good. I would return it but it will be more of a hassle plus they charge you a 15% restocking fee on returns. I would highly recommend anyone not to buy this or deal with MobiScribe

Exactly What I Wanted

I wanted an eink device closer to 8" simply to read manga. I have a smaller, phone-sized ereader I take with me to read ebooks on-the-go. The Wave has blown my expectations out of the water! It is not a snappy device, but I don't mind it one bit, especially since the size, weight, backlight, price, and available apps suit my needs perfectly. I also love the blue backing.

Everything But Software Is Great

The notes app needs a version 2 essentially, due to how buggy the current one is. Erased objects re-appear, erasing is a slight mess (cant change the eraser on the pen to another eraser too). When it works, it works quite well. But when even when I exported a "test" note, some of the space in the image (possible erased areas?) was just... DARK gray, maybe black even. Instead of how it showed on the device.
Of course, preferably the issues would be fixed because of the great potential the notes app has. HOWEVER, another option that could possibly work is allowing other drawing/note apps to use the same software the built in notes use, for the pen. Aka, let the pen strokes be the only thing updating, instead of the entire screen when you write. It would easily make this tablet a 5, due to the customizing you could have for what program you want to use.

Or of course just... fix the notes app, or release a new one.

Ghost Company

I feel like this company is sus. Almost everything on their website is sold out. I really wanted the color one, but it was sold out. The case was sold out for the one I bought. You can hardly find any info online as to why they are sold out. I had the origin and upgraded to the wave. The number one feature I use is the Notes app I do not like that. The menu is over the top of the note even though you can make it disappear I don’t want to go back-and-forth between the two settings I would like a way to put it back the way the origin works.
