Sure.

While the hardware is good the software/firmware is way behind. It lacks so many basic things and needs a lot of improvement. Many feature are somewhat hidden as they are not described in the basic documentation. Those are described in many threads here at MR. The 903 is mostly the same as the 902 except for the touchscreen (requires stylus not fingers). AdobeViewer is good at PDF pictures but dictionary does not work; it just hangs. pdfviewer has lower quality on pictures but the dictionary works fine.

No annotations at PDFs at all. You can one or more lines and save them as a note. but you can not mark a few words or add your own hand written notes (903).

It seems to be they had some pressure to ship the hardware while the software was not ready.
