== Fontaplumo Pen Order ==


'''Brad Dowdy:''' So, yeah, I ordered mine from Fontaplumo. I talked with Frank last week. He said, yeah, he's getting the pins this week, which he did, and then I got a shipping notification, like, Monday. So it'll be here Friday.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Super fast shipping. Yeah, I, this, if, if this was the first picture they showed, they would have been gone even faster. I mean, there was only 100 of them total, but, yeah. I have, this, this picture made me want to put it back in the show notes again because it was so unique. Like, each one of these is different. I don't know. I should stop talking about it because I'm just saying the same thing over and over. There's nothing else to say other than I think it's already better than I thought it was, and I was already in love with it kind of thing.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Well, let's, let's see how you feel next week because you'll have yours by then, right?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Right. That's the thing. That's the, it's scary, right? It's like, well, what if mine isn't as nice as all those? It's going to be. Like, I'm not worried about that whatsoever.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Every single one of those looks amazing, so I can't understand how you would be unhappy with.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. One last, one last comment on that. There's way more crossover between the two colors than their promo photos dictated. Like, I think, does that make sense, right? There's a little bit more reds and blues in the green and a little bit more greens in the reds and blues.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah. I think by and large, you can tell which one's which, but I think there's a few in this image where I'm not 100% sure which model, what is it, like the Vesuvio and the Stromboli. Stromboli. Yeah. Right.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I thought they were pretty, you know, disparate in color features, and now I think they're more mixed, which is great. It's going to be cool. I'm excited for it.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I'm sure you are.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Next topic, Myke.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I am super not excited for, but I feel like we have to talk about it because it's kind of a combination of a lot of this.

'''Myke Hurley:''' It took me a while. I was looking at it today, and I don't get what it actually is.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' All right. So, same here. It took me a while to figure out what this is, and what we're talking about is a product called Supernote, and they're doing a collaboration with Lamy. We've talked about Lamy's All-Star that they put out last year that has the digital writing tip, or maybe it was earlier this year, right, for like Wacom tablets and things like that. I do not remember that. Yeah. So, we popped it up because it was a short topic. It was like, you know, do we really need this, you know, kind of thing. I like that they built it into the All-Star barrel. I think that's pretty cool. And it has that kind of stylus type digital drawing tip. You know, it's not a stylus, but you know what, that type of tip. So, anyway, someone sent me this link to a company called Supernote, and they sent me this link, and you open up the link, and it looks like, oh, it's a Lamy All-Star with a notebook. Well, it's really just a cover for Supernote's digital note-taking device, which I guess it's kind of like the Remarkable tablet, but this is really just more for notes and editing and things like that. It's one of those products I personally don't understand why it exists because it's literally just a $300 digital notebook, like as in you open it up blank pages, and you just start writing your notes, and they're in there. Is that what you gathered from this?

'''Myke Hurley:''' I guess so. I don't really understand it. I really don't get it. I don't know what their product does.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Right. So, let me tell you a little bit about what their product does because this little screen made me go, oh, this is a big nothing product. Let me see if I can pull up this screen again. I didn't do it, but they basically did a comparison. Is anyone who, you know, produces any kind of a product that people have to ask? Oh, it's e-paper.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. So it's that type of ink, right? But it's really just a noting and drawing thing. And so anyone who sells a product that can relate to, people can say, well, why should I buy this product over another similar product? You see these comparison pages. And of course, I can't get it to pull up while we're talking here. But I guess the basis impetus of this is why would you ever use this as opposed to a tablet that you already have? Like if you're integrated into the digital world, can't you get pretty much everything you have with this and more and possibly better in a product you might already have?

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, I don't really understand these devices very much. People are always asking me, like, oh, you should try the Remarkable. But one, they're super expensive. And two, I just don't... I've seen, I found this Why Choose Super Note thing. But I find them, like, really, they're like... I don't necessarily want an e-ink screen. Like I want a full-color screen. So I found it. Why Choose Super Note? Let's recap. So you have other devices versus Super Note. So broken down into categories. So we've got other devices. So we're going to go visual. Other devices, digital tablet. Super Note, stationary style. That's not true.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' No.

'''Myke Hurley:''' It looks like a digital tablet.
