Some of my musician colleagues now use MobileSheets on tiny one-page display devices and they have to contend with not being able to look ahead on page turnovers, Dal segno, Dal capo, To coda and sometimes with repeated sections that straddle two pages. I am greatly impressed by the capabilities of MobileSheets but I will not go paperless until I can see two pages of sheet music at near life-size. Gvido and PadMu offer life-size displays on dual screens that hinge together like opening and closing a book. The PadMu is an unknown. They are both very very expensive. The Gvido has no backlighting and can only be operated by a special pen (finger won't do it) so that does not suit me. A similar dual-screen device named NoteNotes is due to come on the market this year.
I like the Samsung Galaxy View 18.4 inch tablet which can run MobileSheets and which can display two almost-life-size pages. It sits safely on a sturdy music stand and it is affordable. I want to buy one but they are not available here in Australia. I tried buying a second-hand one from the states but its battery appeared to be dead so I had to return it. Hopefully I will be able to buy a working Samsung 18.4 inch tablet this year and become a serious MobileSheets user.
