Well imho converting to text is a pretty big deal feature; and, to be honest, if they were holding back features and making you pay for them, well I would just find that offensive. Thankfully that isn't the case but if it were I don't think that's the right way to get people to buy more from you.

I"m finding all kinds of crazy stuff the company seems to be doing. It's confusing bc I don't feel they are honest in their documentation about what you can / can't do with it. The more I learn the more it seems like you can do very little without paying them for their service. It's sad because I like the thing and really don't want them to make me return it - I just don't feel right about being forced to pay for features that should be native to the device. I paid a good chunk of $ for the device and pen already and I'm supposed to barely be able to do anything with it?

 

So far the info I'm seeing is from remarkable site and the way they word it doesnt answer the real question (like they're trying to hide something). I dont think I'll keep it if I cant use it without paying a monthly fee.

Basically I need to be able to transfer files (both directions) in a couple different ways. I need to be able to get files to and from Google drive for cloud storage purposes and would be nice If i could ultimately get files into a git repo on gitlab (even if it means more than one step to get it there). Also it would be nice if i could connect via ssh through the command line on my laptop (running ubuntu linux) to transfer files using the laptop.

Should I send this thing back or is it possible to do these things without a remarkable connect account?
