read half of the Sun Also R Rises and got bored and and got rid of it I Dr a Mojito drank a Mojito apparently Hemingway loved Mojitos and he also loved distraction free wrting which is what today's product the AST house Earnest Hemingway free signature edition is all about that's a really long name so they say you can also just call it the Heming right which is what this thing was originally called when it launched on Kickstarter in 2014 it's supposed to be a distraction free writing tool um they changed the name from the Heming right to the free right because I I actually don't know why they did that so a fan was like Hey I bought this thing for $900 jez Louise um and they were like do you want to cover it we're like sure as somebody who whose job is to put words down on a digital page I can understand that sometimes distractions are very distracting and uh you know a tool or some sort of setup that would allow you to get rid of said distractions and just focus on your thoughts your ideas the shapes squiggly l lines that you want to communicate something like that might be useful wow look at this thing we got some leather Rich cognac leather what's Co I thought cognac was an alcohol I mean it's definitely it looks like it's all new I mean the idea I think is that you want to travel the world go to Spain run with the bulls as Ernest Hemingway did and uh this thing is going to gather some wear and tear you can also use it as a drum okay I got to say the USB-C chord that comes with it it's a USB-C to a chord for charging it's kind of not the same Vibe is it there's like a

and all these things coming at you from all sides you say no I won't do that I will get a typewriter or rather a modern typewriter I guess you this would still be a typewriter wouldn't it there's just no paper so there's an e in screen so you can see what you're writing and you can write the truest sentence that you know as Hemingway tells you to if you're just going to listen to him and then you have uh it's also got Wi-Fi it's got 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and it syncs up with Google Drive Dropbox and Evernote I believe so it's not like you're just like typing these things and then they stay in there forever and it's just like a journal I guess they got different folders here A B and C you can be writing three things at one time and that's it I thought it was heavier I thought it was going to be heavier than that it's supposed to be 4 lb I think cleaning cloth which for for the whole thing I guess is it for the screen or and then we got a sticker and then warranty card cool cool cool Astro house please wait booting sorry for some reason I thought it would just be like boom you know cuz it's literally just an earring screen and like a word processor I guess I I I imagine that it would be a bit more like jump into writing right away but no you got to oh I just had an idea oh this inspired me I have to write many many hius booting your distraction free writing experience awaits oh man your account and input languages at this URL it's time to begin push new plus new to start your first draft as in like hold the new button and then press the other new button there's a bit of a delay there eh and I love Earnest Hemingway oh oh no right away I feel like the delay between when I hit a key and when it shows up on screen is kind of problematic like right there I was trying to type something and then I made a mistake so I was backspacing and trying to rewrite again but it like it wasn't catching up so I had to wait for the thing to catch up before I could keep typing okay so this might just be a limitation of of eink screens in general and I'm I'm almost positive that it is so as we can see this has a aluminum uh chassis and apparently it's it's hand polished but it's uncoated so it will develop like a natural patina over time there's a reason why lonus is not doing the ShortCircuit it's this is not the type of product meant to impress a hardcore Electronics uh Enthusiast unless that Electronics Enthusiast is also like I don't know into poetry or something there's a reason I'm doing this one because I'm LMG's resident hipster douchebag and I can acknowledge there's an alternate version of me that would really really really like this thing this is a special edition of the Astro house free right which was it's $600 I don't even want to say the price but this is $900 but to continue on with the device itself these are Cherry MX Brown switches and they do feel nice I mean like I got to say like it's you know it's a it's a good mechanical keyboard uh it feels good to type on it's got embedded flash memory so that's how it stores uh the the little drafts you're going to write um it's got a type-c port for charging which I already said uh the battery will last 4 weeks so you can basically be working on three things at once which is fair because part of the concept of this thing is that you sit down to write and it's meant to like separate the writing process from the editing process so this is just supposed to be the straight content generation I had an idea and I'm going to like stream of Consciousness blurt it out into a draft form and then I'll sync that to the cloud and I'll pick it up on my laptop and I'll edit it more I can see that working I just can't I it's $900 this might be good on yeah on on airplane if you need to do some writing but the thing is that like this is really only for creative writing if you need to do any sort of research while you're writing like for my type of work I need to like have all the sources that I'm like referencing and stuff up at the same time while I'm writing this is like you're writing a short story you're writing a a poem you're writing a firsthand account of like your own life there is a specific cool case and and the thing is that like astroh house says that in people who have tried this thing they have they've seen you know obviously there aren't like maybe there are studies but they say that they've seen people's writing productivity double and maybe even triple what I will say is that may okay this is $900 and you probably shouldn't buy it but I will say about astroh house they have a number of other products that might make more sense like the regular free right is only $600 still too expensive but they have a free right Traveler and I don't know how much that is but I'm assuming that it's less than $600 I would take this thing a lot more seriously honestly if if there was a faster refresh rate with like response rate with the typing to screen press the special button it will cycle through a few different things that you can display down here so uh originally I guess it just says freewrite and then the the folder that you're on press it once you get it'll tell you the number of words you have characters and how long it takes to read what you wrote that's kind of cool if I want to write like a 3 long thing it'll tell me where when I've reached around 3 minutes that's kind of cool oh and then here's a timer the latency of the e-reader cuz e- readers are slow so I think that removes is there an e Inc screen that doesn't do this no there isn't but here's the thing the amount of time it takes for the hammer to like strike a page is probably the same except we were we were just saying the opposite like you hit it it goes yeah but the time it t it's just that you're seeing movement that whole time but might similar for what this is they did it the right way there are people who like you want to go to a coffee shop and type your screenplay and not be distracted by the internet but you have to bring your laptop and the internet is like a click away you could actually this is still small enough that you could just put this on a table at a Starbucks and jam and there's not going to be any distractions that's the whole idea how much does it cost $900 out of here this is the thing I don't don't understand how these guys are are making any money this thing made $342,000 it raised $342,000 on Kickstarter in 2014 with a $250,000 goal it blew past its goal a bunch of people wanted this I mean clearly there's a market well I think overall this is kind of a defeat for the Astro house nnest Hemingway free right signature edition but to quote Ernest Hemingway man is not made for defeat a man can be destroyed but not defeated so I guess the the Heming right wins again hey ShortCircuit that was one of the videos you want to see more subscribe check out TechLink please watch Tech news to Link's coming back"}
