The refresh speed of an eInk screen is too slow to support page-turn "animations". Even if it wasn't, I suspect that it would get somewhat irritating rather quickly - I hope there would be a way to disable it .

Plugged into machine on Ubuntu, nothing came up. One hopes this is down to the fact that it needs a charge
