“the trade off of having a calendar on the wall in exchange for having to learn hardware and maintain services is absolutely awful”

“Works well as a conversation starter!”

“the refresh rate... does not! 200ms for partial refresh, ouch.”

“Love those weather icons.”

“OP's Timeframe looks rad, but yes on the pricy side.”

“It's about attention. You can check the schedule without thinking about messages, likes, or the news.”

“That's very hard to justify for any "normal" household”
