A Maker Built a $200 Writing-Only Device Because He Couldn't Sleep - Yanko Design
"The Bee Write Back is one of the more charming entries in that space. Built by a maker named 'shmimel', the device grew out of a deeply personal need: he was having trouble sleeping and found that journaling helped, but couldn't quite commit to a handwritten journal."
"At the heart of the typing experience is a YMDK Air40 keyboard PCB loaded with 47 hot-swappable mechanical switches and matching keycaps. The satisfying click or thump of each keystroke becomes almost meditative, which is exactly what you want when words need to keep flowing."
"The display is a 5.5-inch AMOLED panel at 1280 x 720 resolution, vivid enough for comfortable reading without the eye strain of a typical laptop screen. Powering it all is a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, with a quad-core Cortex-A53 chip, 512 MB of RAM, and built-in Wi-Fi."
The Bee Write Back is a dedicated writing device designed to eliminate distractions common with laptops and phones. Created by Simon Shimel, it features a charming 3D-printed design with a bright yellow base and a matte black screen cover. The device includes a YMDK Air40 keyboard with mechanical switches for tactile feedback, enhancing the writing experience. Its 5.5-inch AMOLED display provides comfortable reading, and it is powered by a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, ensuring portability with a built-in battery.
