I've bought a X3 and I loved it (with crosspoint). However, the screen broke after just a week, even if I used the official cover all the time. It's a cute gadget but it's too fragile for the intended use: its strength is the form factor, you want to bring it with yourself to read a page in any mobility setting, but its fragility is a critical issue.

Yes, great work, thank you. I tried it a bit, and the experience is much more pleasant than using jbmc directly.

It seems very interesting, thank you. What's the relationship with the original jbmc project?

I started programming with Modula-2 and I really believe it was case sensitive. In fact I remember the book I used to learn it (Ogilvie) mentioning the case sensitiveness as a peculiarity of the language: "if case matters in natural languages, why programming languages should ignore it"

A proper example is probably "an apple is red" and "red is an apple".

The current focus on "coding skills" in schools poses the risk of giving students an overly simplistic and impoverished idea of what programming means and involves. Let's try to change it!
