This pen is nearly perfect for the Nomad. While it doesn't have a specific button like other EMR pens, it's still an excellent writing tool. Its clear body perfectly complements the Nomad. Still 5/5 even without the button.
This is a fantastic device, very well-made, and it looks impressive. It genuinely feels like writing on real paper. The software is reliable, though it's not the easiest to figure out right away, so you'll definitely need to spend some time with the user guide. My only complaint is that I wish the syncing with Google Drive was smoother. Also, it would be great to see support for Obsidian added in the future.
This is exactly what I needed to capture thoughts, ideas, and improve my work flow!
I'm not generally a big note taker, but I purchased a Manta mostly to help with context switching at work so I'm not forced to keep so much in my head at all times. Also, I liked the sound of the sort of more offline-first approach compared to some other options.
I also started buying a lot of LAMY fountain pens on trips to Germany, so I was very interested in that as a stylus option. What I read about the writing feel and the ceramic nibs all sounded great and so far the whole package has lived up to my expectations.
After using first the click-pen, the weight of HOM2 is perfect and feel much more premium!
It's been just as advertised. Clean and direct UI, allows focus on notes and To-Dos, best writing feel in the space, and good battery life.
Theodds of me needing this was low but when I needed it I was glad it was available and was easy to install. Thank you!
