@numericcitizen no worries. It depends on the model and the subscription level. I pay them a hefty $200/mo, and have 1M token access on Opus 4.6, which is their most powerful model. I suspect that the base Max plan may get the higher limits too, but Iā€™m not positive about that.

@cheesemaker hah, well TL;DR, XTEink makes tiny e-ink reader devices. The X4 came out first, and has a 4.3ā€ display, and has built-in magnets compatible with iPhone Pro Max sized phones. The X3 has a 3.7ā€ display and should be small enough to attach to the back of a standard iPhone Pro. Crosspoint Reader is an alternative, open source firmware for both devices.
