A while ago I started clamoring for an iPad, I wanted a device where I could read books & articles, and occasionally create diagrams with some kind of stylus device. I was kind of skeptical that this would turn out to be the solution. I was worried that I’d spend at least 600$+ and would end up with a device for consuming youtube videos 90% of time. In the end, I instead bought a 2nd hand Kindle Paperwhite to do the reading, that’s been working quite well. (1/2)

For sketching the diagrams I opted for Wacom Intuos S drawing tablet - I figured that such activity occurs during work hours anyways, so I might as well just place it next to my computer. It was about $70 new (the used ones were going for just 10 bucks less). The plus side is: my daughter might use the tablet as well to do drawing on her computer. Let’s hope 🤞the pen tablet works out.
