It doesn't even have Delete key or arrow keys; you can only type, type, type, and backspace.

Hipsters may or not like the Freewriter but actual writers don't seem impressed:

It doesn't do too well even compared to 70's primitive word processors.
Me, I got my start with Paperclip on the ATARI 800 and later MS Write on the ST.
I still have some reports that have traveled from Atari 5.25in floppy to PC floppy to external hard drive over the decades.
These days I'm on MS OFFICE and Softmaker Office for Android.
The category has pretty much stabilized in the last ten years, not much real improvement made or needed besides Softmaker's built-in epub export.
