Landscape mode would make sense, if scrolling on eInk wasn't completely awful. I can sometimes deal with it on really light websites like Wikipedia, but I just prefer not to.

I will say that my supernote really is just a digital notepad. I keep all my work to do lists organized on it. But since it's Android and supports side loading apps, I have the Kobo app and read a ton on it even without a backlight.

I don't see how that can't be improved.

This smells more of a fundamental problem to me where vendors enshittify their devices to try wooing complete non-users, e. g. people who are too incompetent to work their head around using a penabled smartphone-sized machine and its notetaking/sketching applications exactly like they would use an analog pendant (the classic pocket notepad/pencil combo), or people who bore others with tedious litanies about how "the screen is too small". The latter crowd is well-cared for options-wise, so this is virtually a non-problem. I want to carry around and use a digital pocket notepad on steroids, and not a bloody whiteboard.

I only tested the Nomad's pen functionality (as well as ergonomics resulting from its size) and was very pleased. It's weaknesses lie elsewhere.
