Freewrite Traveler review: I hate how much I like it

Here is a 193-word summary of the news article: The Freewrite Traveler is an expensive, minimalist writing device that the author surprisingly finds himself enjoying, despite its many limitations. Priced at $550, the Traveler has an e-ink screen with no backlight, a membrane keyboard, and processing power weaker than a cheap Chromebook. It lacks basic features like spell check, copy/paste, and editing tools, forcing the user to simply focus on writing. While the author finds the Traveler's marketing "smarmy" and "hipster-ish", he admits the device is well-designed for its intended purpose. The keyboard is comfortable, and the interface is distraction-free, allowing the user to simply write without interruption. The one-button syncing to cloud services is also a handy feature. Ultimately, the author concedes the Traveler is an expensive and specialized tool, but one that works well for him as a dedicated writing device, in a way the competing Pomera DM250 did not. Despite its flaws and high price, the Traveler's focused approach makes it better suited for pure writing than more versatile alternatives.
