Hi all,

I'm really curious, how well the Pocketbook 902/903 displays sheet music. In this I see a great use for me (as a hobby musician), since so many scores are available for free today from pages like imslp.org.

Would somebody please download these scores, upload them to his/her Pocketbook 902/903 and report back here about how well the notes are displayed (maybe by making a screenshot, i.e. a photo of the screen) and how fast page turns perform:
http://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ImagefromIndex/94668 (kind of native scores in pdf format)
http://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ImagefromIndex/01005 (scan)

Both versions are most interesting. The first one might be quite hard to render. The second one is a scan and might suffer from slow page turns and bad contrast. As most free sheet music is available in one of these formats, it would be nice to have at least one of them working smoothly

Thanks very much in advance!
