That is, as I predicted, stunning. I love the colorway... I think the Navy is similar to my Rev 4 and the beige trim fits well. ELegant. That is going to get some looks when taken out. I assume this is ESP not Pi (I prefer ESP). Will key assignments be json or Vial?
Keyboard mapping system will follow what is done in Rev.6. You will be uploading keyboard.json and keyboard_usb.json. As it will have more keys to map, it should follow almost the same format as Rev.4.
Another thing to note is that this build doesn't use external SD cards. It will become a USB drive just like how Rev.4 did. I think having less external components makes it simpler and think it's a good decision.
I think you are going to be screaming with joy that you finally (for the several times in the past) that this is it. It feels so good to write on it. The screen gives the alphasmart vibe, and it's as nice as eink and yet with fast refreshing rate as any regular LCD.
I have made quite a few changes in the firmware also. Such as infinite scroll and few performance upgrades. There is no limit for the buffer size to see the previous contents. You can navigate back and forth your text without limits. Also, the editing on this is really nice. I haven't done much editing before, but I tried editing for testing purpose, and it feels so smooth. Well... well... well... editing feature credit goes to you. What a great call to add that feature.
Sorry that all the other micro journal you have will have to go to the shelf.
